    Chain should go from frame rail to axle tube.

    Start with chain stopping travel at 13" between the birdcage and frame when jacking car up under seat.

      should they not be a mounting bracket to attach the chain and should the bracket and chain be located up and down or 45 etc and how far from the birdcage would you recommend

        PPM makes a nice kit for it. Check their website. The angle and whatnot isn't really critical. What matters is if it works consistently and doesn't hang up on anything. Closer to the cage the better.

            You need something besides the front shock. There needs to be some way to keep the travel consistent when you make bar angle changes.
