Let's talk end links!
I can take some better pics of mine if you want more reference for lengths. Im not sure how the geometry of the tanabe bar differs from stock as far as endlink angles are concerned (or the ciro brackets), but it should give you an idea of what to expect.

These are the only other pics I happen to have at the moment, some of them are test fitment with the ES bushings, which I've since sold:


Its cool that you two have the same exact bar as well as Cusco bracket as Im over here all alone with my stock drilled bar and CDR bracket.
I don't see how the PSRS would change the mounting point for the bracket that much. One thing that I noticed that's different from both of your pictures is that it appears that [Charlie's] LCA is angled lower than Golgo's which could be due to the fact that his knuckle isn't connected. I wonder if you were to connect the LCA to the knuckle and reinstall your strut without a spring and put it through an entire stroke if you would be able to shorten your end link and as such allow you to use smaller spacers?

Im still waiting on my coilovers. I may end up putting the HDs and swifts on for clutch break in/cruise tuning, but Im probably not going to break them down unless I part them out afterwards. Definitely going to install suspension all around without springs and test it all out..hopefully soon.
LCA is flat in these pics. Looks like I may need a small spacer on the bracket and I think the sway side is good. But definitely cant make it to hole #3 without a lot more spacer.

Thanks for the additional pictures. It looks like I am going to have to play around with different size bolts and spacers and see what fits best since I've got a funky slew of parts.
Just curious as I cant quite visualize this in my head. Looking at the bottom picture it appears that the cusco piece has 4 holes. Is the hole furthest to the right the stiffest setting?

Tunah - from your pictures you definitely need more spacer on the bottom. I did a rough measurement on the stock links and it looks to be around 7/8" from the center of the sphere to the mating surface on the link. I just took a picture of mine in a similar position to Golgo's and ours match. I'm using a Whiteline caster bushing (0.5°).

In my pic you can see them labeled as H, M, S.
