This is the best I could get it... I was limited on the vertical separation at the axle by the truss itself and lower mounts. Vertical separation at the frame is set at max. It has 4 other positions, but none of them yielded any better numbers.

What helps quite a bit is the 10-12 degrees i got on the lowers with these brackets. While it's not a completely dual triangulated setup, it does have some on teh lowers which should stablilize it quite a bit and reduce the crab a little bit.

Anyways, it is what it is. 4 link numbers can be analyzed for days and changed here and there. And what looks good on paper doesn't mean **** once you try it out in real life, really. When i did the 4 link on the pumpkin 49 years ago, i just put **** where it looked right. And it worked awesome. LAter when i came across the 4 link calculator, i put the numbers in, and as far as the program says, the rig shouldn't even have worked at all. so, don't get too caught up in your numbers here, or make insane changes to your build and design just to get a couple more digits higher on you Anti Squat, ore whatever...
