You're clearly not a Pirate regular. That's all those link suspension guys talk about...anti-squat, roll center, roll axis blah blah blahshmoken875 wrote:wtf is anti-squat? or is that a dumb question?Jwlman wrote:About 4 inches at the frame and 6 at the axle. I have it about 76% anti-squat. I am going to move the upper link mounts up and reward some which will drastically drop my anti-squat. Meaning I will either need to move the frame side lower links up or the axle side down below the center of the tube.willhf1011 wrote:James what is your vertical separation at the frame and axle? It looks like you will be running with a ton of anti-squat. I'm sure you've run the numbers, I'm just curious because I ran into the same issue with my rig and fitting uppers beneath the floor.

That does appear to be the way to go. I spent a lot of time making those tabs contour to the housingwillhf1011 wrote:If you're going to do something to counteract that adjustment I would look at moving the axle side upper up a bit unless there's a really good reason not to. Extra separation at the axle is never a bad thing in terms of strength
