Double Triangulated 4 link.

[mudgudgeon]

It doesn’t look like it but they are triangulated in the photo, not very much but they are.

I probably will end up moving the mounts on the diff outwards too. I guess that mean the shocks will have to go and coil overs in their place haha.
Exhaust should be able to sneak up and around, most of it behind the transfer case will need to be rerouted anyway.
I think I’ve worked out the calculator and will start playing with upper link locations soon

What state are you in?
Gonna go through engineering? Or try and fly under the radar?

That's enough triangulation. What's the rest look like?

 

[mudgudgeon]

With A-frame top link or fully triangulated top links, the panhard gets removed, yeah?

Qld, my cars a bit of a both. Most major stuff is engineered. But there is stuff that I could still get picked on for.

That’s based on just some rough measurements on where the links can go, I’m not sure if my COG height is right, I used the top of the bellhousing.

Yes no panhard

Not great

Lemmie play around with it a bit more, I’m learning lol

What would you say the issue is? The 6 deg of roll oversteer? I guess it’s part of having the lower links up high

Triangulate the lowers more (further out on axle, in on frame, or both)

Roll center is kinda low

 

[Neil826]

I’ll try get them in a little more on the chassis end they are already pushed out on the diff.
With the roll center being low would that also be because the car is low with small tires?

 

[Neil826]

Bump, Because someone has to do it

Waiting on some rampt brackets now,
14” 2.5s
Homemade torsion swaybar
Most probably alloy links
Everything is just sitting there in rough positions until the links are in

 

[mudgudgeon]

Yep. "Crazy" confirmed!

Carry on.

Kinda unclear what's going on there. Looks like huge body lift

Kinda

Pretty sure this pic is the same truck

Its a ute chopped 80, those are his bed mounts.

Cheers

Yep Ute,

Removing half the cab and the fuel tank opens up a world of opportunities.

These are the brackets I’ll be using, I’m glad I spent a bit more time learning about correct suspension geometry before diving into this

 

[aztoyman]

Those look like 4WU brackets.

What a your numbers. Would be curious to see what your calcs were used. For a Double tri- you ideally want to hit 40*. Below is the pic of my setup but on a Jeep.
