    Fellas,

    I'm putting a 4-link (adjustable bars and positions) in my '32, but I'm not buying a kit. I'm gonna buy the brackets and make the bars, etc. But what i can't seem to figure out is where to mount the frame brackets relative to the axle brackets.

    This will be a street driven car, so I want to mount the bottom bars parallel to the ground. But, I have adjustment holes in both brackets; three on the frame and two at the axle i think. What do I do?

    Do I set it up using the middle holes on both brackets and give myself adjustment up and down?

    I'm thinking that this will give me adjustability if i choose to raise or lower the rear of the car a little. And, it will give me some play to be able to dial in some Anti-Squat, etc.

    Thanks All!!!!

    Links should be level to the ground and parallel to each other at your normal ride height. In theory you can set up for anti dive or lift by having the links converge or diverge, but you are talking about small angles, not like different holes.
