This is video is to give an overview on 3 link rear suspensions for a handling application such as road racing or autocross. Demonstrations are with a G Body and I show some of the parts I'm building for my Time Attack Cutlass.
I went through hours and hours of searching and looking for good information on 3 links. Nearly everything that ever came up was 3 links for dirt track oval, and never ending 4 link information for drag racing. The reality is that the answers are a mixture of the two so this video is ment to provide some direction about which bits apply and which don't.

Link angle geometry 4 link, but a 3 link works the same in a 2D side view. This is a good visual for how small changes in angle or length affect the motion of the rear end: [ Ссылка ]
