I really dont care if that dumbass dies driving his truck, he probably deserves it. Im more worried about all the inoccent people hes putting at risk because he has no fabrication skills.

yea, thats what i mean, if people measure properly and get the right length bars, they shouldn't have that problem.
I always see alot of people that do there notch first and then do there link and the axle ends up being to far foward, that would be my only guess, I'm not an expert in suspension thats y i get some one who is to do my work. But if you do the link first then the notch you could put the notch in the proper position.

I want to know how the axle was staying in place because it looks like all the bars were running to the bottom of the axle?!?

yeah that was his old setup. the new one is much better and eliminated that problem. it just spawned about 100 others in the process.

i wanna see what happens when he has to slam on the brakes and wach the axle twist and break off the front crossmember thus causing him to drop his drive shaft, rip his bags and break off the other link tabs and then have the axle fall off.

only thing wrong with your setup is the bar lenghts are so much differen, so the pinion is gonna be a bit out of whack, Atleast its safe, and looks half decent. Looks like an ART link kit.

I had and ART 4 link on my fullsize, and i dont see what the big deal is. Of course eaqual or much closer to equal lenght bars are better, but with my ART link with i only had a 2 degree pinion angle change at full lift and full drop. Deff not enough to hurt anything, ever. Ive been working with corvairs which have u-joints in the IRS for a long time, and when they are lowered a good bit, they have more like a 4-6 degree change to them and still run 50,000 miles on the u-joints. Whats it hurting?????????
