Bought a Rayburn that some one tried putting four bar mounts on. At ride height what should the bar angles of each bar be from bottom hole to top. For example only. The top right would run from 15 to 25 degrees.
Any help would be appreciated as I want to get the mounts finished.The bars are 15 bottom and 17 top

I don't know what they "should" be on a Rayburn, and I am damn sure Rayburn doesn't either (try calling him on that one, I dare ya), but I can give you some "baseline" angles that you should shoot for that will get you pretty close in terms of a starting point (for a good handling car). My advice would be to make sure you run that deal with a 5th coil and NOT a pull-bar. I've helped a couple of people out who switched up their Rayburn's and that was a key in getting the car more balanced.
LRT- 22 (with options to go up or down 5 deg)
LRB- +5 to +7 deg uphill to frame (shouldn't need to go lower, but might want the option to go 3 to 5 deg higher)
RRT- 18 to 20 deg (with option to go 3 to 5 deg higher)
RRB- LEVEL (it is important to have a hole, preferably the middle, that you can set this bar at LEVEL with the car at ride heights and the driver/weight in car; have the option to go +/- 5 deg to tune entry)
I've got some ideas on how to make those cars better on a 4-link (setup wise and a few other little things), but I haven't found anyone willing to try them yet. Email me if you're interested.

If you're talking about bizkit, maybe you aren't insulting him enough.
It seems to be working for me! LMAO
