The parking brake should move 9-17 clicks. The introduction of independent front suspension was the big news in '86 4X4s. Of course, each half shaft carries two CV joints. The 2WD front end has torsion bars too, but they're connected to the lower control arms, which are braced by strut bars. Numerous pages of ride height and alignment specs are given in the manual because they vary quite a bit among models, so look them up.
Rear suspension is by means of healthy stacks of leaf springs with a stabilizer bar to reduce roll.
