where would this even mount ?

only thing I could think of is it goes between the spindle and the upper a arm / balljoint
but I dont see how it will help raise up the car any...

unless it allows the upper a arm to travel further down before it bottoms out on the bump stops...
maby thats it.

That's a GM ball joint spacer kit. It doesn't raise the front, it allows the front to have more upward travel under launch.

I haven't seen one of them since I was in high school. :shock:

That's correct.

That is it. It can be the difference between putting a front wheel in the air or keeping it on the ground. The latter is real handy on the strip if/when the rear end steps out.
