Most coil over setups are built pretty straight vertical but that really comes as a result of the commonly used mounting brackets on the rear end --a combo bracket for the links and shocks will be located together-----However, the mosr effective and tunable is a setup that is mounted wider on the housing and then tipping in at the top---this allows the spring/shock action to be closer to the tire and the top tipped in gives clearance fot the tire-----------
the more vertical and closer to tire gives a much more direct ratio of spring rate and schock valving/dampening, however probably 99% of the bracketry out there will place them closer together which causes the spring rate/schock damp to end up being a complicated percentage factor further complicated by what is a leveraged dealie-------
Dammit, another good ol boy gone. Condolence to the family. RIP Mike
