Lakewood Industries, the leader in traction and
suspension products, has combined its experience with the latest
technology in drag shock design to develop a shock absorber that has
performance characteristics superior to any other drag shock available.
Lakewood drag shocks are manufactured with only top quality components
to ensure many years of consistent high performance. These drag shocks
will provide excellent weight transfer on initial launch and bring the
front end down quickly to avoid poor aerodynamics, resulting in lower
ETs while keeping the rear suspension properly ''loaded'' for maximum
traction. As vehicle speed increases, the precision speed-sensitive
valving begins to operate, making your vehicle safer and easier to
control at the end of the track. Even under hard braking, you will
notice less nose dive and better over-all stability at high speed.
Lakewood has also developed front street/strip struts for late model
Mustangs. These struts will give superior drag strip operation as well
as excellent street performance. 90/10 Series Struts (Race Only): 70/30 Series Struts (Street/Strip): 50/50 Rear Shocks:
Designed to respond similar to our 90/10 series front shocks. For use
when quick front end lift is required off the starting line for maximum
traction at the rear wheels.
Used for overall improved handling on the strip or when quick front end
lift is not needed. Works best on medium to high horse power vehicles
with wide tires, and low to medium horse power vehicles with slicks.
This is the perfect shock for vehicles driven both on the street and on
the strip.
Street/Strip Best for vehicles with leaf or coil springs. Properly
"loads" rear wheels to prevent overreaction and wheel hop
