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.
wtf is anti-squat? or is that a dumb question? :confused2:
You're clearly not a Pirate regular. That's all those link suspension guys talk about...anti-squat, roll center, roll axis blah blah blah

That does appear to be the way to go. I spent a lot of time making those tabs contour to the housing :crybaby2:
