I may have over looked this but are you putting the upper link on the drivers side?

If so I highly suggest a Rock Krawler style UCA joint in the axle housing.

How is the upperlink going to be set up to not interfere with the driveshaft?

I see them used all the time between 1k and 1500.

I'm about to die for a set.

The pull like hell until they don't hold air anymore.

My buddy runs a set and it's crazy.
