Im pretty happy about the 3 link. Im on 3 inch spacers and blocks right now..going to 3 link and leafs/shackle setup will be a hell of an improvement.

Soon. Soon as taxes come in I will start. The actual build of the 3 link may start this week, but cant order my other lift pieces till taxes arrive. Should be within a week or 2 at most.

I wish I had the time and money for a rear linked setup. Just too much work though. Maybe one day..but doubtful.
