Default Lenght of link arms?

I just started my "Stampe-E" build and have some questions re: links lenght and placement. I think equal lenght would be good as long as I don't get driveshaft bind through the suspension travel, right? I have the main chassis built and locked out front/rear diffs, just need to hang links and shocks. Any help here would be nice. I'm wondering basically if I run the links parallel or offset? How much should I taper them in and at the diff end or chassis? HELP HELP

post up some pics of your work and it'll be alot funner and easier to help with your stuff. but for best axle triangulation during articulation you want your link level or parallel with the ground, top and bottom. you want atleast your top links triangulated a good amount almost to where the ball joints top out. i usually put my lower link triangluated in (opposite way of uppers) on the chassis, but not as much as the uppers. hope this helps.
