3-link / 4-link build questions

[softballnrd27]

So I am gathering parts for my 3-link front, triangulated 4-link rear. I have Genright frame brackets, Johnny Joints, and rear shock towers to outboard the shocks as well. My question is for the ones that have done this before do you start your build at full compression or ride height? I know I will have to cycle the suspension multiple times and fix any clearance/travel issues but I just want a good starting point.

Either the board has a serious glitch or you're one impatient SOB.

Glitch. I was upgrading some software and other things on the server

What happened?

I think your post duplicated a whole bunch of times.

What happened?

On the post menu on the right when you click on the forums header, it shows new posts that move down. Your post was at the top showing it was posted just a few minutes ago (then). Then it moved down showing 35ish minutes ago, then it was back at the top showing it was a couple minutes old. It did that several times making it look like you weren't getting enough attention so you were deleting and reposting it to get it back to the top.

Definitely only posted once, thats weird.

I always assumed that was a feature to give unanswered threads more prominence

Its funny because I posted it and wasn't on the forum again until 5-6 hours later. I really wanted Mr. Blaine's input and was surprised when I saw he almost blocked me. Lol I was like WTF did I do

Start at ride height to know where you want it and then everything is done at full bump.
