Hi,
I am wondering why the @Metalcloak Game Changer JL kit and or the JL Durotrack Track Bar installation notes do not make any mention of possible relocation of the Track Bar frame mount.
Is there something about the design of the Game Changer system or the JL frame mounts that makes track bar mount relocation less useful?
Is it a case of Metal Cloak having so much interest in maximizing up travel capability that the OEM positioning results in motions that average as parallel when the gains in up travel capability is considered?
As I understand it, the "ideal" is to have the track bar and drag link parallel, and while it seems good to have the parallel relationship in the at rest posture, parallelogram positioning can not be maintained through the range of motion because the two parts are not identical length. So the most effective solution is too manage the compromise.
I am wondering how the Metal Cloak JL kits manage the issue?
Thank you!
