Multi-link Roll Adjustment

Would someone mind explaining how the roll center is adjusted on our double wishbone emulated multi link rear suspension? I'm looking to understand how the geometry changes under force. Thanks for your help!

This is a good question for the RCE/CSG thread that is stickied at the top of this forum.

the simplest way is to mount the subframe closer to the chassis, this requires different subframe bushings and also some modification of the subframe.

Going to be running DSS rear axles so the subframe drop is not an option. I'm not interested in removing a large portion of the subframe.

Those are stock axles. DSS axles are much more beefy and you have to remove material directly above the CV joint. not good

this will move the subframe farther away from the axles. the subframe is getting closer to the chassis, while the shock is the same length, pushing the end of the axle away from subframe, effecting angling the axles down away from the subframe.
