|

well if that is the case 90% of the rigs with passenger side 3 link are not achieving it. no way they are. i know what numbers effect it and just looking at the setups i cant see them getting the right numbers

Any plans on moving the axle forward at all?

Just from messing with your setup in the calculator, is it possible to lower the axle side of the upper link? Why do you have some much vertical separation at the axle? You want the links to be as flat as possible and as close to parallel to each other at ride height. I would try and increase the frame separation and take some away from the axle side. You only need like 8" of vertical separation at the axle.
I thought I needed to have 25% of your tire diameter for link separation? I will lower it if you think 8" will be fine. That clears up some room by the engine. |

good catch. that is an error on my part. i will change the sheet.
it should be a little less than 10" of separation. (based on the brackets I have now) |
I changed some numbers, when I get home I am going to measure to see if this will work. I like these numbers much better

Have you weighed a ranger? I was looking through you past threads and I didnt think you had come up with a good number yet.
A friend of mine has got scales, its just when I can get over there and weight it. |
