Rear end question: I am not sure if this is good enough to run. Need some advice.
Car is sitting right now at ride height and the ladder bars are adjusted so the coilover shocks (upper & lower mounts) are parallel, but I think we welded the coilover mounts in the wrong spot on the 9" axle. (See pic shows tranny & driveshaft pointing down and angles, but pinion is pointing up). With these angles, shouldn't the pinion angle be pointing down?
If that is true, then I will need to break the welds and reposition the coilover mounts after the pinion angle is correct? Because now, if I adjust the ladder bars and put the pinion angle down 5 degrees towards the ground, it swings the lower shock mounts up and puts the shock bushing in a position that is going to wear them out in a hurry. Any thoughts appreciated!
