    Dipped 3-link upper link

     



    I like the way 3-link rear suspensions work. I have read that the best designs for adjustable ride height has all links the same length. This is fine for a race car, or pick-up truck, but does not work with a car which has a back seat.
    Has anyone ever seen a 3-link with a dipped upper link that allow for room for a back seat passengers? The attached sketch is exaggerated, but shows the concept.
    Besides the added weight, does anyone see a major issue with such a design?
