I guess I used the term track width to define the distance between the ladder/4-link bars. I assume the distance for ladder bars is not particularly important because its primarily a straight line suspension. But people run the 4-link because it articulates better when doing things other than going in a straight line. The stock frame rails are ~40" apart and many people run 4-links with the stock frame. If I convert to a 4-link the distance between them will be >14" narrower. Will this impact the effectiveness of the 4-link? There has to be some distance where its impractical and I'm trying to determine what that might be.
