just as a side note, I had to modify my upper mount to get the geometry correct. lower control arm parallel to ground at ride height, upper control arm slightly angled down at the frame end-like 4 degrees? upper mount angled slightly down at the rear for antidive geometry (think, this is from memory). inner tie rods pivot point is inline with imaginary line drawn between upper and lower control arm pivot points when wheels are straight ahead (anti bumpsteer).
anybody else? am I wrong here?
