what rearend are you running in your truck? traction bars can be as cheap as $49 and may be your cheap fix if you chose traction bars; read up on the applications (i've never installed/used them) the snubber should make contact on the spring pivot not further back on the spring |
Re: 4 link Kit for 55-59 Chevy Truck
Nice looking truck!
I like using a panhard or even better a watts link to locate the rear axle. It defines the rear suspension roll center. I am building this '59 to be a an all around performer, which includes handling around corners (I guess that's called pro touring now?) so that's why it is a no brainer to me. Plus the adjustable link locations allow you to dial in how the chassis responds to power being applied to it by the rear axle. |

Triangulated http://www.how-to-build-hotrods.com/...ed-4-link.html Parallel http://www.how-to-build-hotrods.com/...el-4-link.html I just bought the Performance On Line Kit because of the rectangular upper shock bracket like HEIDTS, is the complete kit and it has a Limited Lifetime warranty! https://www.performanceonline.com/19...-Kit-Complete/ and it is $999 but if you watch the web site I got it for 10% off and got it with the Blacked out Coil-over adjustable shocks! |
