I think we've discussed this type of joint haven't we?

Not with me, still the same problem exists, how
can I get those on both ends and keep them
supported, plus I get 40* with the CVs I'm using
and they are a more compact package (length room)
On my -7, the front ds is not parallel to the centerline of the vehicle. It actually goes outward. It does appear to be horizontal with the frame, though. Wild should look at the design of a center mounted diff, ie Hagen style, or the minimum relocate the diff housing more center. This style design leads to longer axle shafts, and longer a-arms, all of which have to be same length to get maximum articulation, then this also ties into the tie rods being parallel to the lower a-arm.
In your layout for keeping the tires straight up/down during suspension cycle, is basically done with real long control arms, and keeping them parallel to each other during the cycle. (For a quick comparison, 2 fingers parallel to each other going through movement, in comparison to 2 arms going through the same movement. You get more with longer arms.)
Center diff is great, you just got to make one, I'm not ready
for that route yet, I'm also not using upper and lower control
arms, just a lower A-arm, for now it's Top Secret ÂÂ
 the control
system is attached to the frame for it's reference and input, but
the single A-arm mounts to stock location.
To relocate the A-arms to a point where there can be upper
and lower equal length arms, you would have to mount them to the
outside of the frame, and that would make a shorter arm over all,
even if they were widened a few inches, I have put 3 years of thought
into development of a new front suspension, I don't move fast and
abruptly, I take my time and really work out the details, Heck it took
me 10 years to finally follow through with the turbo ÂÂ
 but I really got
serious in the 6-9 months before the actual install
