      Either way you go just remember there's a motion ratio on the front. So putting a 6" stroke shock in there does not give you 6" of suspension travel.
      Between bump stops or ball joint bind there's only 5" of travel. Motion ratio is near 2:1, so you really only need a 2.5" stroke shock to get 5" of wheel travel.

      Britt, Do you have a shock part number or length of full coil over that works when you combine the Chicane kit with the Ride tech A-Arms?

      Please remember you can also do the same modification to the upper control arm mount to gain the geometry benifet PLUS you don't need to remove the coil over to adjust the ride height.
      and why mix all the different suspension companies components??? what is BETTER about the CA 4 link that isn't about the SPEEDTECH Torque Arm ????
