Question help rear end question!!!!!

Just installed a 9 inch rear in my ta, it has adjustable lower control arms does anyone know what they should be adjusted to? My car seems like it sits higher in the rear now for some reason also.

Measure where your tires are in relation to your wheel wells then adjust them back to front.

The increased diameter of the axle tubes, relative to the 10 bolt, is the reason the rear sits higher.

If you still have the stock LCA's use them as a template to get the length. Then use your eyes to see what looks right to you as centered in the wheel well. Obviously, make sure that you keep the right and left side the same length.

You would get better answers if you posted this in the gears & axles section.
