4 link or ladder bar pics?

Id like to see some pics of both 4 link and ladder bar setups in a mav if anyone has any pics i cant decide what i should go with

 

You can look at what I did on mine it is a 4 link. Thread "Lil Betty II my 71 Maverick".

 

What's your goal? You can go pretty quick with the factory leafs and Cal-Trac bars alone. Or minitub and move the springs in 3" per side and run a 325 tire...

 

To be different than the next guy and have ride adjustability. I'm running 275 now tires and I can always go back to stock if I want.

 

Currently i have moved leafs inside frame rails & im runnin 315/60-15s i have removed bottom leaf from 4 leaf springs & have 2 inch lowering blocks got the rear ride height about right w that but im looking to get it into low 7s or high 6s in eighth

 

Looks good like that. Got a shot of the whole car? I'd like to see the stance.

 

Im still working on the front its got to come down about 2.5 inches

 

.....this is from the 80s......still good enough to run 11s

 

Hey maverickdean how did you determine the angle of the upper links compared to the lower links?

 

Hey quickshift how does your car ride on the street with those ladder bars?

 

looks like the whole frame in the rear had to be replaced to run that setup.

 

It's the not the most comfortable and if you look closely, you can see where the upper part of the bar hits the floorboard. The setup is designed to plant the tires by raising the car at 8500rpm launches..... Still fun on the street..... Just noisy.

 

One thing I notice is your clearance around the rear tire looks very close to rubbing,will a slick have enough room to expand & not do that?

 

you don't have to move the frame rails. My comet was a ladder bar coil over and I loved it just lifted and went. My current maverick I was just going to mini tub and do cal tracs and see how it does with relocating the leafs on the other side of the frame. I was able to get a 12" wide tire on my comet but didn't know if the frames were moved.

 

If this is directed to me, I had to open up the wheel wells at the front a bit. This shows my street tires(32"Pro-Trac's) ,but with my 30x12.5x15 slicks,I had lots of room.
