    3 link hike

    This is a few questions about 3 link suspension or similar suspension types. First static setting for LR link for a 3 link, is there a max degree to start with? is there something as to much static upward angle and what would be the effect if so?

    Hike in the chassis promotes foward drive by what? My understanding is the chassis is redirecting force down the link into the axle, kinda of "every action theres a reaction". is this correct.

    How do you keep from 3 wheeling a 3 link with achiving max hike? J-bar/panhard bar, bite, ballast, RC?

    Just want a little understanding trying to figure some stuff out. thanks in advance.

    The left side bar on a 3 link creates antisquat as you increase angle which puts traction into the left rear tire. It also raises that corner of the car. As a bi product it also creates roll steer which has a loosening effect on the rear of the car.
