    It will just be one upper link as in a single bar going straight forward. It will control how it cycles and then it will have a panhard bar that controls the side load. So it works like the giant dd links minus the air shocks. I don't have a pic of it yet but I will be starting on the rear again soon since the front is pretty much done

    Hmm... I've been trying to figure out how to move my stock tank to where my spare use to be. I think I'll try and steal your idea, leave the tank alone and make room for a full size spare back in the factory location?

    Links are ready to go together! Still waiting on the overlay plates though. Of you look closely you can see what happens when friends cut parts out for you for free.

    It's all in the details. Had to do some clearancing on a tube so a bolt can go in nice and smooth. Also got the engine cage welded up and started on the links.

    Hell yeah, after getting my 3.5 over trac kit I can't even imagine how their race kit rides. How's the rear links coming along?

    FYI these are 35s not 37s. Just talked to him on IG, he's in the same boat I am. Gotta figure out the new weak spots (steering tubing fenders and engine cage for me) steering and 9" for Brian before the step up.

    Correct. I want to go have fun in the truck for a bit so went with 35s for now until I do a rack delete and put a 9in in it. Top priority is to get it done and in the dirt. It's useless just being a garage paper weight. Plus I'm pretty sure the wife is tired of me working on it everyday
