4 link rear

RedSrt007 said:
4-link has some great advantages, traction, control, and many others. When designing a good 4-link system axle point, control arms, antisquat, and any other calculation need to be taken into consideration. The way axles twist under travel, and how pinion relation(s) are all key in making something *work and work well. FstJack has a well designed 4-link rear setup...

Here is a 4-link I built on the crawler...

I don't think he needs that much suspension travel.

But then it is Stinker. Maybe he will need it.:D

No not in my living room, that picture is at at Don Prim's shop shop, they are the ones doing the tin work.........:burnout:

My wife would not allow such a thing............never.............no way.............no how................not.................:mad:
 
I just stopped by my local custom shop and inquired about a 4 link / ladder bar rear. They are going to use a Chris Alston set up and a narrowed FAB9 axle for the basis of the quote. The goal of this inquiry is to figure out what it takes to get the Mickey Thompson rubber under the truck. Who knows, after tax refund I may be able to do it.

For giggles, he also ballparked a roll cage for me @ $1500.00. So if I ever get my truck into some real HP and good 1/4 times, I will be prepared for the cost of required safety features.
