    Becaaause I still think you should 3-link it with a quarter elliptical set-up... That way, you can retain the load carrying capabilities you need and almost match the front set-up in quality.

    Buhsides, they look sexy! 4-link, but still... on a taco (booger weldz old truck) with 3-link c/o front.

    This rear end is pure sex! Who needs coilovers. :p

    :( But you don/t have to re-locate the gas tank with a 3-link.... ;)

    As for the bed, I bet you could keep it. Would have to get kinda creative with the shocks, though.... :eek: Is the axle wide enough to route the shocks through the wells? Are you planning on doing anything to the bed?? Any plans for a internal or exo cage and tying into some kind of bed cage that still allows you a lot of capacity? I bet you could build a freackin insane cage. :eek:

    Sorry, if you answered that already. :eek: You need to make a list of all your plans for the SAC/SAS! :p

    Meh, whatever you do is going to be awesome, Jerry. I'm just curious. :D

    Yeah i was thinking 3 link as well . The rear axle is uncut with no outers yet so i can set wms to whatever i want but my front is 65"wms so i need the stay below that. I havent thought much about cages im not much of a fan of exo cages but after seeing matt's on pirate :drool: im just going along my mind changes a lot on what i want to do with the truck. I do know i will have twin 9" axles with a 3 link in the front with 12" KING shocks.

    Do it. :D

    Dang... Didn't realize you were going so narrow. Might not have enough room for shocks with out going through the bed, or getting crazy with the set-up on a 3-link then... Bummah. :eek:

    I like the clean look of internals but yeah, Matt's exo is insane!!!!! :eek: I can't imagine how much work it took to make that cage... It's just about perfect. :eek: lol But you've got the equipment to build a quailty cage like that... I bet you could make a clean friggin exo cage, Jerry. :cool:

    Nice. Dual rate coilovers?

    I mounted mine in the center console and came up under the shifter boot.

    Yeah the guy i bought the axle off of set it up at 65" or so he says. I like that's its only 5" over stock i don't want the tires sticking all the way out the wheel wells. And yeah dual rate 12" KINGS with the comp adjuster.

    Yeah it should be pretty good I've never liked the look of all the tire sticking out past the fenders on a full bodied truck.
