mule rear suspension

[fastbirds]

does anyone know how well the 4 link rear works on the mule.i have a 69 firebird and im going to take it to some track days at elkhart lake and do some time at the dragstrip.i was thinking of going to a similar setup.ford 9 " detroit truetac etc.

Considering the car is built to handle 200 mph I think it's doing just fine:)

Everytime I walk by it in the shop it growls at me like my old dog did when he had his favorite bone.

how does the car hook out of the hole?has it ever seen the quarter mile ?would a three link do a better all around job and be more adjustable.also is that 9" aluminum housing from currie a good piece for big hp applications?.

thanks david, that is a very interesting article. im confused about the mules rear.i thought its a 4 link but in marks reply he states it as being a 5 link.whats the big difference other than being one more link.

The fifth link is the panhard bar. It is just the way some people phrase things.

Yeah, Mark is a suspension engineer, so he probably learned the "right" name for things!

i thought it was a four "bar" with a panhard, not a four link?
