4-link question!!!

[muddragger92]

How big should the gap be between 4-link brackets on the rearend?

Your best bet is to find those measurements on a 1:1 four link set up, and then change it to scale. 

1 inch in 1:1 = 1 millimeter in 1/25

In 1:1, it's going to depend on the dimensions of the hardware being used to join the suspension to the brackets.  4-link brackets are going to user a larger size rod end than those used on the front suspension, say, of the same car.  I'm sure others will chime in with more info.

i just ordered 1 of each of the Futurattraction 4 links. They are very nice. Be carefull when peeling off the backing though, it can be a little tough, I nearly bent one beyond repair. Might have had something to do with it being in a metal mail box and 119 degrees

Cameron - a good way of removing the backing without risking damage to the PE parts is to place the backing rubber and all in acetone until it separates by itself.  You'll need to soak it in acetone to remove the purple/blue film anyway.  If left long enough, everything will come apart on its own without physically separating it.  This is especially important on lighter gauge PE or if there are etch lines intended for bending in a certain location.  This suggestion is also on my website in the Tips 'n Tricks section, in case you missed it.
