Aloha everyone from Cape Town, South Africa
I've got an Aussie Valiant Charger A-body with absolutely no running gear. I'm in the process of fabricating the front Coil over but need some advice/help/insight/wisdom/mana from heaven/enlightenment from you good people if you have it for me.
I want to fab a 3 link! Ta da!
So there are 2 options but I don't know the exact parameters and I'm concerned about Instant Centre as one option seems to be BEHIND! the car.
One is the very good looking but GM Art Morrison kit - pic attached.
The other is the XV kit. Here's an install: XV Level II Suspension Installation by jvike | Plymouth | Barracuda Gen3 | DIY
But just buy one you say! Well here in South Africa the Rand doesn't go as far as the US Dollar and I'd be paying 12 times the price plus 65% import duty so there's that. Oh and massive shipping.
Let's get the conversation started...with the length eye to eye of the lower rods if they are centred under the diff.
Oh yes the diff. Will be using the extremely well priced Torque Sensing Limited Slip Differential based on the Dana 44 but severely beefed up (multiple ratios available). It's a new design and I spoke to the engineer a while back. $599 for a diff that handles 500hp and is Limited slip. Cant get a Try-Trac for that. I can't believe nobody knows about it. It's called a TSD-500.

Ok so no more rambling. let's start with the lower road lengths eye to eye centred under the diff.
Show me what you got!
Thanks,
Brett
