Doing the math
I'm in the planning stage for the next up grade to the truck,it'll be back halfing and caging. I've already got a pair of 18.5/31/15 hoosier quick time pros and 15x15 convo pros. This weekend I pick up a 9 inch housing. I'm still up in the air over 4 link vs ladder bar, though I'm leaning to ladders. I downloaded a work sheet from ca chassis works and filled it out. I thought that I'd put it up for checking and out for sugjestions.

Re: Doing the math
A true 4-link will give you so many more option for tuning with the ability to tune for weather, elevation and so on. If this were to be driven mostly on the street, a double adjustable ladder bar system will work just fine. In either case stay away from the street rodder 4-bar system. It has no adjustment and isn't really meant for high HP rides.

Re: Doing the math
I bought the pro-street 4 link. Why settle for a ladder bar?

Re: Doing the math
An adjustable 4 link is the way to go. If your going to have everything torn apart and have to fab up stuff anyhow. Theres really no reason to downgrade to a ladder bar setup. The adjustability of a 4 link alone is well worth it.
