Default Vic Rear Measurements & 4 Link

Vic,
Do you have your front suspension complete yet?
For some reason most guys start with the rear and then move to the front. I choose to start in the front with all the real complicated geomentry and work all that out and then move on to the rear. In my opinion, the front is way more critical and much much more difficult to make it work correctly with setting up the rack & Pinion, ride height, track width, anti dive angle, caster camber, bump steer, shock length, shock angles, and more issues.
My opinion is the rear can be made to fit the front much easier than the front to the rear.
I am now looking for a quick change and I will be designing a WATTS Link for the setup.
I am not sure if there is room under there for the four link to work properly.
As for the steel, I was planning on using the 3" .120 for the main supports.
Anyway glad to hear you are progressing with your project.
