Hurst,, not sure of that angle, I no longer own that car. but I am guessing maybe 30*
I just ran the bottom bar as straight as possible to the frame and the top bar at the most angle that would work, and keep the mounting points close,, That was for a air bag setup.. and it works great,, air ride has more up and down movement than any other suspension, and this one doesn't bind up at all...
if you notice,, the front pivot points are close in proximity to being one above the other, on the same plane, not necessarily the same horizontally,, The top angle doesn't have any set degree setting,, No matter what angle you set the bars at,, it will hold the R/E in place, as long as there is one on each side,,,,,,,,,,is that confusing you even more?

I have to agree with Dave, worrying about your health will just speed up that trip, none of us want to take,, I'm 72,, and try to keep my mind occupied with positive thoughts, like the cute blond that lives accross the street:>)
I basicly have the same reason for getting my projects done,, If something happens to me .. at least my wife can sell the cars for a decent price and have a little nest egg, but mostly because I want to drive em,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ALOT
