I want to see more of the truck behind it

 

Yes. Thanks!

 

Its like btfs frontier

 

What is the benefit of that setup?

 

Looks like a mini link to me.

 

Brandon told me that the benifit on the fronter is that the bed is so short it is harder to run traditional stly links since the shock set up would have to be cut into the cab. It didn't make much since when he told me that. I was going to have them do my front kit

 

"2005 Nissan Frontier 4Wd Mezzanine Arms
This is why we called this truck one of a kind. Sure, you have seen a three-link suspension with mezzanine arms before, but how many have you seen on a Frontier? The mezzanine arms are used to gain more wheel travel from a shorter length shock. Considering the small bed space on the Frontier, typical trailing arms would properly put the upper shock mounts in the back seat area. Gil wanted to get away from leaf springs and still be able to comfortably fit four guys in the truck; this was BTF’s solution. The rear now provides 22 inches of wheel travel using King 2.5x12 coilovers, 2.5x14 triple bypass shocks and 2.0x4 hydraulic air bumps. The rear of the truck was lifted approximately 2 inches."
