In what kind of setup?

[el curioso]

I have trailing arms with a 12" notch. Air bags on trailing arms its just that i dont know if theres an ideal position to place shock like in example on trailing arms, on top of axle, what angle do you get the most from your shocks, can one shock be in front of axle and the other on the rear. If i were to go with a watts link where could i more less place the shocks?

But a pic speaks a million words.



Thank you in advance.

Here's what I have. Some aren't of your particular setup, but you might get some ideas from them.

The ideal location given any setup in regards to performance is going to be as close the the wheel as possible, and as vertical as possible, that way it will be the most direct acting to that particular wheel, and provide the best performace and handling. Given, there are many applications where that is not possible, but the closer you can get, the better.

Hope that helps

Excellent reply.

Thank you guys for the data. I'll try that close to the tire but not to close. So that in the end they dont act as limiting straps.
