Triangulate the lowers and the uppers run straight forward. I have used this type of setup twice. Once with coil overs on a replica "super modified" car built for street use,, it has an LS1 and 6 speed tranny and is a very light car. it handles very nicley.

The other on a bagged minitruck with custom built frame.

Talk to BioMax about this subject. He is where I learned about it.

RE.double triangulatedI have seen it done on Xtreme 4x4haha

I think it would work ok but you better have the lengths and angles correct or it they will be fighting each other as they travel through the range of motion.

dangit my post didnt go through.....

the upper bars are parallel, the lowers are triangulated, pointing torwards the front usually..... at the right angles, it has low roll steer, and creates roll understeer.... helps you go into and come out of corners easier... cool if you speed around corners.... isnt really relevant to most trucks built because people dont worry about many other important factors.....
