if you move the front swing arms up on chassis you will add rear steer and effect loading on that tire.
I stayed in middle hole. moved it a few times and it felt like it loosened car up.
I used a 2" shock extension on LR
long swing arm back to back of chassis, and a tall LR birdcage.
still say that is the fastest car I ever drove.

Check out this thread. Lots of great info on there. Justadddirt and heavy duty have helped me a lot. My set up is posted in the link, its really goofy for a swing arm car but I've been winning ump a mod features with it. Fastest car I've ever driven. It's a copy of an 01-03 lightning made by powerhouse race cars. http://www.4m.net/showthread.php?350698-Swingarm-mod-help
