NM ... you got a 4 link.
Yeah, it's been difficult finding a fix. The good news is I'm making new acquaintances with all the phone calls I'm making.

I think what I'll end up doing is finding someone to make a bolt-on extension bracket for my Hotchkis rear lower control arm (trailing arm) mount. This would allow for lowering the angle of the trailing arm (it tilts upward front to rear, needs to be more level to the ground) as well as adjusting the length. If I can get a bracket fabricated that has a variety of mounting holes, and effectively lengthen the trailing arm, I can rotate the axle downward and fix this issue.

Yes. Been there, done that. Not a big fan though

The Radix aren't made for racing they're make for tire smoke shows and weenie roasts!!! :p

Me and Grippy would make a good team with his heat under the hood and my water filled intercooler.

I used nitrous to cool mine off. It picked up 75 rwhp on a 50 shot, so i would think that it likes it.

I might resort to a 50 shot eventually, but I've had bad experiences in the past
