Thread: shorted dog bones

zzp states the shorted dog bones will help you pickup oil better during acceleration. does that rotarion of the engine change the spot where the oil hits the dip stick?

i'm thinking tilting the engine may also shift the oil toward the dip stick making it look like there's more in the engine.

they are also good for inducing vibration to the axles.

Snake oil.

so you're saying they are good for nothing.?

i thought they were supposed to help, esp. on lowered cars.

ove the last 6 years thats what ive heard. lowering the car make the axles not level then the dog bones can help if you have a vibration or not apparently.

spacers are a better thing id think to use if your vibrating due to being lowered.

yay, someone's been listening to me.
