I spent a lot of time researching and figuring out the rear suspension. For the rear, it will have a triangulated 4 link. I used the common 4 link spreadsheet to get the critical dimensions and characteristics.

The Jeepster frame is very narrow, so the rear shock towers had to be notched into the tub. It's not ideal, but it was a choice that I had to make to get more suspension travel.

Genright Shock Tower installed. You can also see the aftermarket gas tank installed in this picture.

The rear Currie Anti-Rock sway bar isn't installed yet, but I've got a good plan for it. I need to pull the tub off the frame to get the mounting tube welded in place
