K, then going to a shorter link gives the car more rear traction and helps it square up faster. So I did this, but did I basically cancel out that when i added a ballstud washer under the rear ballstud?
When you soften the rear it will make the car more responsive but also give it more traction and less overall steering. Depending on which side you placed the washer, a more level link or longer link will roll more. A shorter link should give more straight line traction but if you are trying to lock in the rear go longer. 1 washer under the ballstud is a minor adjustment as opposed to a longer link, major adjustment.
