Rear Suspension Overview: Part 5 - Ride Height

[@alexlamas3963]

I baught a truck set up with 4 link suspension. The rear is a little low for me. Can I raise the rear of the truck through adjusting the 4 link. Or is that only gain by the coils? Thank for any help.

The coil overs adjust ride height but it changes more than ride height in the geometry of the suspension and chassis. Draw triangles, up down and sideways, move one end but keep the other end the same and watch how the angle affects the other triangles. Play with it and hopefully it starts to make sense, add arcs after you see it and see how that affects things. () (v) the arc can represent the tires, crankshaft or driveshaft and axles. I hope the visualization helps you.
