Do you know hat angles your rear arms are at? Just curious, I mocked mime up over the weekend.

Are your lowers parallel, or angled out to the wheel? I think I'm going to be about 10 degrees out on each of my lowers...

Once again, just trying to learn.

They are nearly parallel with the frame rails, <5* by eyeball measure.  In my case, it was more about packaging than anything else.

Optimally, it should be double triangulated or as close to it.
