TRO Ruff Stuff set up question - Drag link before or after?
OK I made the tie rod up so my wheels are at least headed in the same direction. I've centered the axel under the frame and installed my track bar. Next on the list is the drag link. Should I wait to have the engine and body back on the frame before I do this. Will the added weight change the geometry? Now that I think of it, I might need to redial in my track bar too. Let me know what you all think

Re: TRO Ruff Stuff set up question - Drag link before or aft
Keep in mind that you want the axle to strike the bump stops squarely, so you should be most concerned about where the axle is, left-to-right, at full compression. If the track bar's path causes it to sit slightly left at ride height, no problem. It is not uncommon for a properly engineered suspension to sit that way.

So, I will wait to do the drag link till the weight is back on the vehicle. Track bar is the adjustable type so that's no big deal. Thanks for the input.
