Another Look at Rear Suspension
This is another look at my rear suspension. In this view you can see the little tab I made that will hold a 90 Deg. AN-3 fitting for my brake lines. The other end of the fitting will hold the braided SS brake hose to the brake caliper. Also, because of the changes I made to the upper control arm, and the fact that I now can get a 0 Deg. camber, I needed to get a longer tube for the toe link arm (gold). The new bar is 9" long instead of the original 8" tube that came with the chassis.

Rear Suspension View - Head On
This is a head on view of my rear suspension showing the good look at my new rear upright (knuckle) bracket and my new lower link. The new link is positioned on the plane of rotation of the rear lower control arm. Thus, it will not affect the positioning of the control arm, but merely hold it in place. I also show the projected location of the upper control arm link. A special fixture is being made that screws on to the 3/4 - 10 bolt that will be used as a retainer for the upper link Heim joints. The picture shows my paint scheme of the suspension components.

Cradle and Rear Suspension
To test some things out, I assembled the engine cradle and suspension components. This picture gives you a good idea on how my rear suspension will look like. Missing from this picture are the rear sway bar (still being manufactured) and the rear upper control arm link.
