youre not missing anything, its fine. its called a 3 link long arm. ps pay attention to what section of the forum you are posting in. this section is more for build threads instead of tech questions.

It's not a 3 link long arm kit. It's a radius style with only one upper. A real 3 link is just that, 3 actual control arms and the upper arm doesn't connect to the lower. If you want a real 3 link Clayton makes a kit that's much better then anything iron rock has to offer
