Hi all,
I'm installing new BMR A arms and Viking coilovers in my 71 big block.
I hope to lower the front end approx 2" lower than stock via the coilovers. I'll determine the final height when I see what the stance looks like.
I ordered tall ball joints on the upper arms to help keep the camber manageable (as recommended by BMR).
The upper A arms also have offset cross shafts, which I can mount either way.
I want to be able to get this thing aligned properly.
Considering these factors:
1) lowering the car
2) tall upper ball joints
3) offset cross shafts
Is this a good combination to be able to align it properly?
Should I mount the horizontal cross shaft to push the upper ball joint out more, or to pull it in more?
I want it to be adjustable, but also don't want to end up with a big stack of shims on the upper arm.
Thanks,
Tom
