4 link / 6 link set up

by **James P** » Sat Jan 13, 2007 7:49 am

Gidday All,

Just wondering if any one has plans or scale drawings of the 4 link boxes and axle mounts? and the correct lengths for the rods to suit a mk1(i don't think there is a difference between mk1 and 2, but just incase)?
Or if anyone knows of a www with the specific details?

And if any one has a 4 - 6 link rear end installed is there any chance of having a look at some good photo's of where exactly the boxes are fitted, and also the watts linkage chassis mounts??

Any help would be much appreciated!!

Cheers,
James.

Hi Roger,

Thanks for the reply, i will try to keep an eye out for that issue over here...

I seem to have an incorrect setting or something, as that is the third or fourth post of yours that i can't see the images that you have posted?? any suggestions, i can see the images that others have put in their posts and some of your old posts, but in the last week or so i haven't been able to see them!! HEEELLLLPPP!!!

If this is just me then it must be an issue with my set up, but it just seems strange...

A few of my dimensions here, (for fitting though not of the part themselves)

Fairly self explanatory what type of box or turret each one is for

Feel free to print them off if they are of help.
