I'd extend the rear of the frame a bit, then put the sprocket in its final location, run the live axle through that between the bearings, then I'd use 1" ujoints on either trailing arms or a-arms (single or double. Single will work well, but you don't get as much travel. Double works better, however it's more complex). What's your current engine and are you planning on putting a larger engine on in the future?

I really wand independent suspension but I'm thinking of trying one more thing before I spend more money I'm gonna put two shock absorber s on each side and extend the rearend a little so it will have more clearance to flex more my whole problem is it just doesn't feel right not even fun to ride and uncomfortable
