Just Joel Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 And it's alright... Plenty of people are anti bags (I guess it's a purest thing?) but for me, the car was getting so low that I was experiencing drivability issues. Hell, I had a complicated set of ramps just to get out of my driveway :D this not only allows me the opportunity to drive at a more reasonable height but I get lower when I want it and higher when I need :) 2 Quote Link to comment
Just Joel Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Not to mention little extras like a four link rear and smoother, non leaf spring ride ;) 1 Quote Link to comment

Dirttrack510 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 This build page got me so excited, I had to go get cleaned up. At least I "got mine"... ALL HAIL JOEL!!! :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I do, but I plan to put it on the back of my wagon... So glad you dumped the ladder bar idea. I was trying to calculate a 4 link setup, but decided against that as I just couldn't get the numbers where I wanted them, and there just ins't room above the axle for a 3 link without going into the rear seat. So I have decided on a torque arm setup on my wagon 1 Quote Link to comment

So I have decided on a torque arm setup on my wagon Torque arm would work well... I just didn't want to give up my battery box. I ran the #'s on this link setup and while not perfect (never are of course) I was happy enough with the values considering the non performance based application. Quote Link to comment
