Do you have shims-spacers between spring and housing-perch? Perch sitting on the spring I mean?

No, I don't have any spacers or shims. Not sure what difference that would make?

Raising or lowering that bottom plate in relation to the housing changes the instant center just like the first or second hole in the front pivot. Pretty much the same way moving the bottom bar in a four link at the housing. One way of getting the bar level to ground and the farther away the hole is from the center of housing, more leverage, closer, less

I never thought about adding a spacer to lower the rear hole position relative to the axle. I know the Assassin bars have a lot of adjustment holes up front and in back but think so many options could lead to more confusion on how to set it up.



A few racers I know swear by the Assasin bars but agree, the Calvert stuff is on some fast stuff and to add to this, Calvert has recommended the bar parallel to the ground also as a starting point.......I think you guys may be on to something and I will try the upper hole on the street, then install Shilo's ft. Vikings and do a few 60's to see how it acts then one full boogie............ thumbs
