    In theory 45 degrees is the ideal angle for triangulated upper bars. 20 years of GM intermediates all had this setup. I came pretty close with mine (about 42). The difference in length doesn't seem to matter all that much, as long as it's not too radical. I have two cars with this setup and I don't see that much bind. Since most of our cars have at most 3" of suspension travel I don't see a problem. But then, I could be wrong...

    If you can't use me as a good example, then use me as a horrible warning.
