CTD Nut, that's exactly what I'm talking about. The 3 link/4 link I'm talking about is basically the same set up, except the 3 link uses a Y shaped upper link with a single large spherical joint attached on top of the axle instead of the two upper links....kinda like the big truck pictured above, but with a mount and spherical joint sized to handle the lateral loads. Most all the desert trophy trucks run this set up.

Justin, that picture above is radius arms with a track bar, the arms have a short upper link coming off the lower simply to maintain caster. It's substantially the same set up I run on the front of my truck....



Panhard bar is another name for a track bar, it runs parallel to the axle. Look at the Dodge with the obnoxious lift on Kelderman's site, that'll show you the rear Panhard set up. The 3 link and the triangulated 4 link won't work unless you move the fuel tank somewhere else.

Basically I want it to be able to flex like this:


Here is a pic of the rear link setup on it:




Mounts for the coilovers/etc:


all assembled without the bed. looks like there are two fuel tanks:


I like how everything is bolt in when they are done. also look at how little frame flex there is in the top pic. probably from the beefy frame braces that run the whole way up:


does this look like it has some squat while accellerating? or is it because there are 3 guys in the back and the tires are digging in?

That's the 3 link I'm talking about.....

oh yeah, here is the write up on it, seems like they do awesome work, I bet it was a fortune though. they did a sweet cummins too, leafs in the rear still, but real nice.
