Dunno why the pics won't come up.
Perhaps PhotoBucket is having a problem.

Thanks guys, that's some great information. C9x, that's a good point, I could run the links below the axle, I did not think of that. However, that would mean they are visible below the floor of the car, which is something I'm not a fan of, both aesthetically, and in the sense that things can hit any low hanging components. It would not be easy to tuck them away either, because the car was originally only intended to be a four cylinder, there's not a lot of space under the car to tuck exhausts away, and things like these parallel links.
I think cutting the two small sections out of the floor is good. They're not ovverly huge portions of the floor, and will be pannelled over and strengthened again anyway, and I'm probably not going to fit a back seat, due to the cage etc, so there are no real issues there.
Is there an effective way to prevent squat with a parallel four bar system? I know it is very difficult. It's not a huge issue for me, because it's going to be a street car, but as I think I've said, spirited driving is not out of the question.
I'd definitely like to see pics of the suspension setup on the A. As well as photos of the panahrd bar setup on the Roadster too if possible.
Thanks again guys, very helpful info!
I've been checking in and figured the site had died forever. I checked today and bam it's back on. Awesome. I don't contribute much here, I just come to read and enjoy hotrod builds and good company...
