Rear shocks with a 4 link question
So I'm putting a 4-link into my 59 and have a question. I'm running out of room to mount the top of the shocks between the inside frame rails ( possible interference with the panhard bar) and wondered if I could mount the top of them angled towards the rear of the truck on the outside of the frame. Is there a max min angle for them to work properly?

Re: Rear shocks with a 4 link question
yes, I mounted mine that way. I have heard 22* is the max angle

Re: Rear shocks with a 4 link question
Depending on where they are located at now, and how the 4 link is installed you should be able to move them without a problem. If you do angle the shocks towards the rear of the truck then you'll want to make sure the shocks will have enough travel. Remember that the rearend will want to swing away from the shocks when you air up.
 If there is any other information or suggestions I can help you with please let me know. Clint Last edited by Kontrol Phreaks; 06-11-2007 at 06:43 PM. |
