Hi,
I'm getting restarted on a long dormant T-bucket makeover. I am going with hairpins and a dropped I-beam in the front. I was planning on hairpins and coil-overs on the S-10 axle in the back, but with the body channel and stance, I don't think the hairpins would clear. Plus, I'd rather not run a panhard bar.
I'd like to use a triangulated 4-link with the bottom bars angled toward the chassis and the top bars straight. I guess that would be a "satchell link"? Does anyone have experience with this? What size DOM should I use for the bars, 7/8" or 1" with a 3/4" bushed rod end? Motor is a MILD 350 Chevy.
Any help would be great. I read through this thread: http://www.tbucketeers.com/threads/triangulated-4-bar-rear-suspension.6111/
but I could use some clarification.
Thanks,
Karl
