Should I ladder bar or 4 link

Yellow Rose, I agree with what you are saying but for most guys 4 links are a daunting learning curve. My chassis guy built my ladder bars for my car based on wheelbase etc, and what he felt works well. I think I have 5 holes in frt, and 4 link mounts in the rear. I don't know the length off the top of my head, but it is longer than 32 inches. I trusted my chassis guy because of the caliber of cars he has built in the past. The double adjustable shocks you mentioned are probably as important as anything we are discussing for that car.


So how long are the bars? If possible, can you PM me some pics? You are saying the back of the bars have more than one mounting position? Without pics this make no sense. Moving the back of the LB up or down would still make the IC the same no?

Pics would help me get it.

BTW the 4 link is nothing more than the intersecting of 2 bars. The two biggest issue I had were piss poor starting info and how to get the 4 link correct installed. FWIW, the old saying of half the wheel base and cam high is 100% bull crap. The second thing is the bottom bar, in its middle settings should run down hill 1-2 degrees and intersect near the front joint. Never should the bottom bar be level. Dave Morgan had to publically renounce this practice in about 2002-2003.

Once you get past that, the 4 link is very simple.
