    Sorry, gotta do it.... ;)

    4 link suspension design

    There is a TON of info to take into consideration. Short of writing a book, which most of us don't have time to do, it's a loaded question.

    A four link setup has to be designed well for good traction, if that is the main concern.

    Can you be more specific with your questions?

    What kind of power are we talking? Big Block?

    I bought an lt1 camaro with a t56. When I get back to kansas city im going to pick up this car and start taking measurements to see how tight its going to be. If I can make it fit then I might sale or trade the lt1 car for a complete lsx swap setup. There is two setups I was thinking about going with. One is the dual drag link bars with the pan hard bar. The second one is one with two lower control bars that go to the crossmember and two upper contral bar that attach to the frame at a 45..... this would be soo much easier if I could post pictures.

    Here's a LS1 swap thread Jason made over on CT.

    As for the 4 link. This is a bomb proof triangulated 4 link kit Streetacos makes for the 1st gen Tacoma. It's a true race kit that's 99% bolt on, all into factory holes and can be returned to stock at any time.

    I'd love to get one available for the 95 & older Toyota's, I just haven't yet. There are currently two running around, one on a super fast supercharger V6 s-runner and the other on a turbo 2RZ Taco. I currently have 4 to build and I'm actually working on one this evening. They're fully adjustable up & down to raise or lower ride height.
