Ridetech 4link Suspension on 1st Gen camaro and diff positioning...
Hi guys,
I'm chasing some advice.
My 68 Camaro has been a work in progress for some years. I had ridetech 4link installed on the rear sometime back.
My car is not on 100% on the road yet, but I recently have access to a vehicle lift, so I have been under my car more often lately.
I have just noticed recently my diff is not centered....or at least I believe it is center in relation to the ridetech cradle and hardware, but not in relation to the body of my car. If that makes sense?
I know taking measurements from the body on these old cars is not the ideal way to do things, but I have some photos on here for review.
I know it is not uncommon for there to be some differences between rear wheels from side to side and how they sit in relation to the body. Also with these old bodies, ya never know for sure what life they have had.
Anyway - I have noticed a difference in where my rear wheels sit and also my that drive/tail shaft is not 100% center either as it heads towards the diff.
I have measured all the bits on my 4link, the arms, the tabs welded to the axle for the top suspension arm - everything appears to be consistent on either side.
Is this sort of difference common?
***sorry images are all turned around.....they did that after being uploaded for some reason.
