Help with ABC ride height links + lowering?
Hi there, sorry if this is a duplicate but I couldn't find anything in search.
Can someone please help me out with the correct orentation of the rear links on an ABC car? This is for a CL but should be the same on an s class and more activity on this board.
I've tried doing these things in multiple different directions and am now just totally confused haha. I put lowering links on it and could never get it to sit level, put the stock ones back on to try and trouble shoot.
I have the rear right one facing outward, and the rear left facing inward - is this correct? On the front they can only go on one way right? The ride height seems screwy no matter what I do - perhaps some computer stuff needs to be reset? Would leaving the battery disconnected or something help?
Please see attached pics of rear link orientation and ride height with stock links - any help is very much appreciated!

Yeah, it's goofy and I can't remember which front of back is "longer = shorter"... I bought from these guys and they had good info, but I threw it away like a dummy
