I have 4 link brackets on the car already. I found a smoking deal on a fab 9 chromoly housing with brackets already welded on. The problem is the car brackets is 25 inch on centers and the rear end is 24 inch centers. Will this cause any problems or will the heims take enough misalignment without causing any issues. Any thoughts or opinions are appreciated. Thanks Brian W.

always want to build as square as possible for alignment...sometimes there will be deviations..

as what you have theres only a 1/2" for each side and I take it the bars are about 24" long so as far as I see it there shouldnt be that much if any issue...as long as the diagonal or wishbone brace is installed with the whole rear lined up, square with the chassis/ front end...

nope, wont cut it.

The link brackets have to be parallel and perpendicular to the chassis centerline.

Have to pull and push straight forward.
