I don't really see the point of doing a 4-link on a LCOG setup. That and I refuse to weld anything to the "frame" as my rigs get so beat to hell that I swap everything over every few years.
Unless you know of someone that offers a bolt on kit? I would be open to that, I just hate to try and remove welded on sub frames. (My fabrication skills are pretty much Nil, I can weld not a problem but I lack in the design department.)

As for springs...I was running Rusty's and had no issues with flex. The key to get the most amount of flex is to run the flattest spring with the ideal spring angle. If you really wanted to, you can easily get 4" with a stock spring. Run the T&T u-bolt eliminators and a longer shackle and that can easily gain you the few inches you want.

Makes me really wish someone made a 2" lift pack. I think running a 2" pack with 1/2" u-bolt eliminators with a 1" shackles and the 1/2" to 1" from the drop brackets would be perfect.

Buy some shorter RC leaves and their relocation bracket (if you want to stay at the same height). I made my own brackets and its amazing how much it helped the ride and traction!
