Ridetech OUT, 4 link Watts-link in.

[David Pozzi]

Here is a page from the back of an old “Chevrolet Power” book published by Chevrolet 6th edition, 1988. It's mostly an engine build and parts book but has a few pages of Suspension info at the back. Ignore the first paragraph which refers to a previous page. The drawing shows lower link angles that are pretty severe but they are just an example. The theory used should be sound.



It shows an upper link intersection point "A". and in side view, a line drawn forward from "A" at the angle of the lower links. Where it crosses the axle center plane, is the RC location. If this is really how it works, this system has a very high roll center.
