Hi guys, this is my 1st post here. esp22, if you going through the exercise of custom made rear bar why not consider quarter chop at the same time?

not only bush seperation at axle end but overall length of RA plays a roll...btw if you flex a LR/RR arm with no axle case you will see that the chassis end bush/mount is not the limiting factor.....it is the binding of the axle bushes....

Re: Custom rear coil suspension 3link
80/100 and gq/gu rear suspensions are 4 link plus panhard (or if you like 5 link). They have 2 lower and 2 upper links (control arms) and a panhard rod.
A 3 link rear suspension would have 2 lower and 1 upper links plus a panhard.

Its very easy to relocate the lower chassis mounts (the ears) up higher and further forward. If you are running bigger tyres or any lift this is one of the first things I would do. It gets rid of the hang up point on the chassis (which is a big bonus) and reduces any hopping problems on steep ...
