Slowly but surely
Well it's not really a 4 link. It is more of a ladder bar set up.
I may try and just convert to rod ends before switching it to a 3-link, but my concern is bind in the rear suspension for road racing. This set up will work great at the dragstrip, but there is going to be bind and I am also being told from several places that the control arms are way to short and will cause some serious wheel hop when braking hard.
Again, I think I am going to try it as it sits first, then with heims. If I don't like it then, I will conver to a 3-link.

At stock ride height, maybe.. With the tires tucked where ther are at, probably not.. I have to mini tub the car for sure anyway. I'm also making the rear 1" narrower than my measurement due to the slope of the rear 1/4 panel. Between the mini tub and 1/2" on each side I should be able to get there.

FYI.. Here are a couple pics with the tires totally tucked now.

With a flat rear tire, no. The bottom of the control arm brackets is level with the lowest part of the rim in this picture. I will probably set my bump stops to about that height.
