4 link quick question

[fpjr0]

I have been reading a bunch, and seems like the more I read, the more I learn, but also sadly the more I change my goal , now it seems I know what I want to do, but if I want to do a 4 link set up on the rear, now I have read that with a air-over leaf you need to move/relocate the axle a little towards the rear to keep it from trying to go into the transmission when lowering, how do you accomplish that with a 4 link? just read a lot on 4 links but nowhere I saw about the axle relocation. thanks in advance,,,

p.s. moderator should control the number of post some of us read or we will never finish our projects

The length of your four-link bars will determine the amount your axle moves fore and aft. The longer the bars the less the axle moves.
