    Pretty sure he was just using it as an example, not saying it was a Toyota or exactly what he was going to do.

    He used bushings, I’ll probably use Heims on the upper

    is this your build? not talking smack, but it was my understanding that the rear shock mounts on the links should be below center line. Hard to tell with out seeing that rear mount.
    neat looking setup though.

    You would be correct and Giant remedies it by using a bushing front pivot so it does not let the link “ wobble “. If you were to run a univalve front pivot on those same links they would be all over the place and you would need “ wobble stoppers “ to keep the links vertical.

    Are you insinuating that their kit is good ? It has some issues and everyone I know that has used it has blown up so stupid little air shocks they use instead of a third member. It confounds me why they felt the need to replace something as simple as a single tube of metal with that awful air shock set up ?

    @mthouse01 feel free to check out my build link below. A 3 link is entirely possible to do so you can keep the stock tank. @dirt designs has a full 3 link kit now too, check @sytfu510 ’s build thread he recently had his done at dirt designs.

    I swear man, if Dirt Designs had made their 3-link a year or two back I would have just went for that. Def a sick set up that I am scared one day I would lose out my ass to get.
