CHASSIS & SUSPENSION HOW TO HOOK AND LAUNCH: Traction Mods for Street & Strip by Dick Miller Getting the rear tires to really bite and gain maximum traction is divided into several small steps, and Miller walks you through each phase of the launch. Today’s enthusiasts face a wide range of potential traction improvements, from softer tires and basic bolt-ons to complete or partial chassis replacements. Most opt for something in-between, where some well-engineered components are chosen to replace the factory equipment and offer a greater capability and range of adjustment. It is this range of upgrades where Miller spends most of his time, explaining what the parts and pieces do, and how to use them to their highest potential. 8.5 x 11”, 128 pgs, 230 color photos, Sftbd.
