yeah, that has NOTHING TO DO with pinion angle.

Two links have pinion angle change. There is only ONE HEIGHT that the pinion angle is correct. Only one. Making longer bars minimizes pinion angle change, but it does not eliminate it.

summary: all two links have pinion angle change with adjustable suspension. No matter what. Even Nascar. Even Semi trucks. Even the long trailing arms on the 1972 Chevy fullsize truck. And if someone wants to compare sticking two bars under a truck with engineering a Nascar suspension, a semi truck suspension, or a production truck suspension, like they are the same feats of marvel, then nothing I say will matter.

But for the record, most two links are for lazy people who dont want to move their gas tanks and dont mind pulling a wheel off the ground pulling in a sloped driveway. I dont care what respectable shop makes this or that. Thats my opinion.

they "work" so to speak, but you'd still have pinion angle change and no articulation in the rear suspension. i wouldnt suggest one because for the price you can buy a nice 4link.. and still have $ left over as well..

I think that as IF Customs that was doing that... I about fell off my rocker when I first saw pictures of that. Sadly, that threw them to the bottom of my 'to go to' shops list, regardless of any other quality work they may do.
