So the Rally Rx7 has about the worst rear suspension travel. At my measure, i can muster a full range of about 5" overall. And 1.9" upwards from rest. My 1980 Celica GT had greater articulation and was also a predictable car and fun to drive hard and fast, even with 75hp. Heck without the sway bar, the chassis could almost be 30 degrees with both tires planted.

So then, my search is to get better travel, and i think this is going to result in scrapping the entire rear setup and start over.

For starters, the axle is weak. This will be replace with a Volvo Dana 30 in 5 lug.

for locating, i might reuse the bottom links but ive considered running a much longer link. Extending up the central support beam. This would be similiar for the top, with the top having adjustment points.

This project doesnt get to start in full for a few more months, but i plan on formulating ideas from here on out.
