So i have finally decided to 4 link the rear of my yj. Its on 37s, rear lp 60 soa up front with 1 inch lift springs. im shooting for about 5 inches of stretch out back. i have about 2 inches of stretch in the front.
i have read a ton and from what i have gathered its best to have more anti squat in droop and less in bump. The only way i have been able to make this happen on the 4 link calc is to have the uppers length be at 70% of the lowers total length. The problem is im going double triangulated and i already have a flat belly skid. So the farthest i can go foward from the axles for the lower links is 33 inches, and thats with the welded crossmember under the t case output yoke. That puts my upper link length at 25.9 and lowers at 37.5. Is this to short?? Is this a decent plan? thx for the help in advance.
here are my calculations
