Re: wheelie bars?
Big wheelies from an AMX are not only expected,they are mandatory!!
AFCO can make shocks fit just about any application to control the wheelstand. The Keir wheelie bar is great on an AMX as long as its not too low and has a fuel cell. After 30+ years in 100" and under wheelbase cars, I have to agree with Jeff, nothing beats a "blue sky" ride !

Re: wheelie bars?
ok after reading what you guys have said, and watching some 10.5 by 28 inch heads up racers this past weekend who didn't have problems running in the low 5s in the eighth mile and keeping the front end down with out wheelie bars. we are going with a good set of adjustable front shocks instead. anyone know who makes a good set for a 69 amx? i understand that some fabrication may be involved

Re: wheelie bars?
I believe Calvert makes some as a bolt in.
Since you do not have a class car, there are companies that make a coil-over kit for the AMC. Just google it, you'll find it.
