There is a good bit of math as well as a ton of fab. There are 4 link calculators online but unless you are good at fab don't try it.

there are a few kits out there but you still need to know what your doing as far as putting it in.

you can make adjustable arms and just use the 4-link calculator for your mount locations, and then get somebody, who has done it before to tune it in. but you'd probably be way better off getting a zj instead. price-wise...

coming up with numbers that are good on the calc and making those numbers work in real life isnt as easy as it is to say. besides that, if you can build your own cross member, truss, and weld links together that will hold up then your set
