I will check pinion angle here in a coupla weeks.
The car with Hotchkis leafs has DSE coilover conversion, ATS spindles, Konis, and DSE A-arms. Tires are 255/45-18 Toyos

Have you got any info between 9" or 12 bolt? I have planned to go with offset DSE leafs but so far thought 9" would be better? But if not i would like to have opinion. I think my tire choise will be 275 at front and 335 at rear.
I believe this is important therd to keep alive. I am looking for most bang for the buck in name of as good handling as possible. I finally got answered from DSE to my question wich was :
Q
lese give me your honest opinoin here: Do i really need the Quadralink with DSE front suspension or can i go with your 3" drop springs ? Can i notice the difference with 100% street driving skills ??
A:4. The 3” drop springs work good, but the QUADRA-Link takes it to the next level. In our testing there was vast improvement in all “road coarse” and “drag strip” numbers
That was good reply from DSE but i cant imagine "how good" the improvement really is with average joe driving skill.
