Modify the upper trailing arms

[Jimmi The Kid]

I am building my AE86 for trackdays, (grip race), and I wondered how I can modify the upper trailing arms so the are more horizontal, when I have lowered the car. The arms actually hits the metal on the bracket now.

I thinking to move the bracket a bit up, but I have to reinforce it a lot to keep it stable. I borrow a picture here: http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o65/j...008269.jpg

I have also thought to use equal lenght traling arms, but its a bit difficult to get it right. Like this guy here: http://img187.imageshack.us/img187/3112/cimg0925nw3.jpg
I'm not so happy tho do this operation, as I might will use the car as normal daytime car later. But if its realy nesesary to build these trailings arms boxes, I will do it.

The lower trailing arms can be horizontal just fitting some tractions brakets.


Does anybody have an idea what should be the best choise?
