Hey guys needing a little help here,
I am in the process of setting up my truck-arm rear suspension, but I am wandering which way you guys think I should set it up. The big question I have is how much of an angle, if any, should I have at ride height? The crossmember I am using is from Stock Car Products. It has two holes on the LH side for the arm and three on the RH, but I am going to cut the top hole off the RH side for extra floor clearance. I don't believe I would ever use it to begin with. Let me know what you think.
Here is what I have right now. At ride height w/ the arms in the bottom hole, they have a 1* up in the front. If I move them to the top hole then it increases to approximately 2.5-3*. The arms will be approximately 5-6" off the ground at the front mounts. The vehicle is an 86 Monte Carlo SS. The height of the car at the bottom edge of the rocker panel pinch weld is approximately 6.125". For the front suspension I plan on going with the G5 setup from SCandC.
Thanks for all your help.
