    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    There is no set price on a 3 link set up it's all about the parts you chose. To do it right plan on at least $5,000 to $7,000 not including labor if your not doing it yourself and that's with the cheap axle.

    And judging by that quote you might not be ready to tackle the 3 link yourself.

    X2. There is a lot of geometry and other factors involved in setting up a link suspension properly. And I don't think there are any "bolt-on" link setups.

    Ain't nothing to it, hell according to some of the soft-skulls locally think that it's all bolt on :rolleyes:

    There's a lot of work and planning that go into a good setup. I was able to get an idea of what I wanted together after months of planning and hours upon hours of reading and research. Then I talked it over for some time with my fab guy and he made it happen :D
