Well I'm moving forward with the 3 link:

Planning to run the upper on the passenger side for clearance
Will have Hiems on the frame side with bushings on the axle end.
I've got 2x2 square tubing 1/4 wall for the lowers with 1.25" Hiems
Sourced 1.5x1.5 square tubing 1/4 wall for the upper with a 7/8 Hiem
Also, will be doing a little front stretch as the steering allows

 

Upper Link Made:

 

Cutting and making all my own brackets , Built Not Bought

 

Axle Side Upper Link Mount

 

Day 1: Teardown

 

Would u have enough clearance to run a passenger side upper link?

 

Yep, That's where I'm running it, Between the exhaust and the frame.

 

No turning back now:

 

cool. I ll like to see how it turns out. I'm still debating whether side to run the passenger upper on my next d44 build

 

I wish Cherokeeforum had "Like" buttons like NC4x4. This thing is going to be sweet when it's finished. Only a couple more days left and she'll be ready for this season.

 

Agreed. That's one thing that I've been wishing it had as well. Seems like hitting "like" would take up less server space than people commenting that they like something or "looks good"

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys.
I honestly went for the passenger side arm because it simplified mounting given my current design. I wanted reuse as much of what I had as possible. If I started from scratch I'd do it different.
