Re: unequal four link for super stocker
While I agree the adjustment is more drastic with the short top bar, if you move the mounting location on the rear housing to one of the other holes you can find a middle ground. First thing you need to do is draw out and plot the IC of all combinations. This will tell you what next closest move is.
I built two Camaros with Quay kits. I put what Ed wanted for the initial bar and shock settings on the first car. Worked great, just made changes to front shocks/limiters for track changes. Second car didn't work out so good during shakedown, had convertor/gearing issues. During this time I changed bar settings, ride height and shock settings. Dug out my notes from Ed, put back to his initial settings. Went looking elsewhere and found the issues. Rear is still at these settings, just adjust the Santhuff struts extention 1/4 turn max either way depending on track. |

Re: unequal four link for super stocker
If it was me, I would lower the front of the upper bar by at least one hole. Kinda funky geometry the way it is now...

Re: unequal four link for super stocker
notice that no shocks are installed and that a jack stand is holding the housing in that position.
I will contact Quay and set the initial adjustments per their recommendation. Doing that is some time away. Lots of areas of attention to address before the final setup takes place.

Re: unequal four link for super stocker
Bottom bar 2 degrees down towards front of car. Notice in the pic provided the bottom bar is in the upper hole on rear. Both rear housing mounts should be in outer holes. When lower bar moved to outer housing hole, the rear will need to go up into chassis. This will increase downward angle of top bar. I believe the top bar in pic is in preferred initial location. Shock settings should provide minimal chassis separation or squat.
