    Anytime, bring your swim suit. The water is great this time of year!

    I swam across the river last year in November and damn near died of hypothermia. Took a couple days to find my balls.

    Yeah that water was cold. Not the smartest thing I've done. You'd think with half a century of experience under my belt I would make smarter choices....

    I reach that milestone in a few months. I'm glad that smarter choices are not in my future.

    I bet, and screw that.

    Was it a double dog dare that made you do it?
    Happy early B-day!

    Smarter choices can vary. Memory goes to hell in a hand basket tho (might be just Me). Just last week someone ask how old I was, Said 51, then realized later I’m fidty2 years old.

    Probably something worth considering if your current set up has some issues or if it’s limiting your imagination. Putting together a list for LT now.. how did you decide on 2/3/4 link setup? I’m thinking 4 link is the move just not sure how exactly to mount

    That reminds me of the videos where people are jumping into holes on a frozen lake. I’d like to try it sometime but the idea of swimming across that river in November gives me a brain freeze haha

    Definitely not if my life is any indication
    Nope, just thought it would be cool to swim across.
    I think 4 link is the most elegant setup but I believe it requires ditching your gas tank for a fuel cell. Chris will correct me here since I dont really know what I'm talking about.

    Elegant is the perfect way to sum it up and you are 100% correct

    I just got off the phone with some people and have parts for an anti wobble joint set up coming. Soooo elegant

    I like JD fabs fuel kit relocate kit - more protected way up in the frame. But another item added to the list.

    I read several different opinions about mounting a large fuel cell behind the rear axle. I ultimately didn’t mount mine there because of; leveraged weight, exhaust routing, and fear of rupture if rear ended

    Good points - may also change my opinion on mounting locations / 3 link.

    I believe Jeeps have their gas tanks located behind the axle, which makes a 4 link more feasible, but I would hate to get rear ended there.

    The other opposing thought to this setup is: the further the gas is located behind the rear axle, the more leverage the sloshing gas has to push the rear end around.
