The unit shown under the purple Mopar is the original design, this particular car uses 20" wheels so the bracket height was not an issue. We have gone back and snugged things up, but the setup will still require a minimum of a 17" wheel in the back for clearance to ground in case of catastrophic tire failure. The lower control arm bracket and shock bracket were moved up a bit, the change on the geometry was minimal, and there is no reduction in suspensions travel as a result of the slight tweak. Steve pointed out that the flat bar is just a strap to hold the car off of the ground so we can roll it around while the "real" rear end is being completed and powder coated.
