Quick performance 9" questions
Quick performance 9" questions I'm in the process of putting a qp 9" in my 2001 ws6 and wanted to check and see if anyone has ran into this issue or if it's just normal.
I am using racecraft lower control arms, spohn tunnel mounted torque arm and trz panhard/anti roll bar. I haven't gotten to the panhard yet but it seems like I have had to shorten all the links as far as they will go to get everything mounted and get the wheels centered in the wheel wells. I'm running 28" drag radials and with the control arms bottomed out the tires barely clear the rear part of the wheel opening. Yesterday I mounted up the spohn torque arm and had to remove both jam nuts on the top bar and screwed them all the way in just to be able to get it short enough to bolt up. I haven't even adjusted pinion angle yet so hopefully I have enough adjustment for that. The qp torque arm mount has solid heims and I have them screwed all the way in.
Is it normal to have to shorten all this mess this much just to get the wheels moved forward enough to clear 28" tires?

I didn't have that issue. Stock length arms put it towards the back of the opening and I trimmed a little of where the bumper flares in for peace of mind. But with adjustables I can pull it in to the center of wanted. I did have an issues with the holes being a hair big allowing for the axle to be a bit crooked
