I am trying to figure out how to mount my shocks. I have removed the torsion bars and am going to use coilover shocks only. I need to know what angle I can run my cv's at. I have bus cv's.

Dont forget that for every inch of off-set between the trans drive flange and the stub axle at full droop you lose half a degree of angle from those numbers

So you are saying that since I.m 3" back I should be at no more than 15.5 degrees?
Thanks for the link Dave

That is close to correct. If you had your CV's race prepped and clearanced, you could go more. Do you have chromoly cages in them?
If you run things on the conservative side, you will not break stuff.

I do have the good ones. I set it up so that it will be no more than 17 degrees extended. Lookes like about 9" of wheel travel. I could get more but I would have to change part of my frame. We'll see how this works.
