Adjusting parallel 4 bar rear end question
Fellas,
I'm a bit embarrassed and mixed up, looking for your ideas and input regarding pinion angle and 4 bar end adjustment-
I have a heavy duty Pete and Jake's 4 bar/Panhard under my Car, with a Deuce Factory Sway Bar and Alden coil overs.
Initially, I set the Pinion/Trans Angle (within 1 degree), and haven't had any problems, but last Fall I noticed a slight vibration under deceleration (I've put about 2500 miles on the Car)-
When I disassembled the bars, I found the Bushings shot (I guess I shouldn't be surprised given the horsepower it's making, and I've had some fun )-
So, here's the problem (and it's baffling me)-when I try to set the pinion angle, I'm running out of threads (screwing out) on the bottom rod ends, even with the top ones all the way screwed in-nothing looks bent/broken, I'm using a Digital Angle Finder and it just doesn't make sense-any ideas? I'm currently at 94,2 degrees at the Trans and 88.4 at the Pinion-Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?
