Another hair pin question

[kgrabber]

I'm working on a 29 chevy. I've removed the parallel leafs up front and I want to build hair pins. the problem is that i would like to keep the steering box in the stock location however to do this the radius rods need to be 24" or less. Is this to short for average articulation?

Probably be OK, we build all of our front radius rods 27" but we custom build a lot of other lengths also. The shortest one so far were 15" long, for a customer, and we have done quite a few at 24".

I built mine from 46 rears so the pivot is right under the steering. They are pretty long. Seems to work fine. I'm not sure how short you can go. 24" seems pretty short.
