if you run a triangulated four link..the gas tank will have to be moved or replaced with a fuel cell. by running the wishbone look it lets your keep your gas tank in the stock position only moved up an inch or so and also keeps you from having to put a panhard bar in for support. some people use reverse fourlinks so they dont have to move the gas tank but i woulnt recommend it..everyone i know who has had reverse fourlinks, hated them. when you lay on the throttle they sometimes have a tendency to sag really bad.

oh my bad i miss understood the question...i dont think there is a difference when running the bars. a triangle is the strongest geometric shape so if you design a system witha triangle set up it wont move anywhere its braced from all sides. triangulating a set up keeps you from using a panhard bar like you would see on a standard 4 link. (i think)

What I want to see is your rear 4 link setups (NOT cantilevered or bag on bars)under the bed.



guess im the only one that can read....because Dragmatic, and Seth have been the only to to do what the guy asked for. As seth said his is easily adaptable to bag over.

and who the hell threw in a IRS, It has nothing to do with what this guy asked to see not even close



guess i couldnt read either....

You can use a stock tank with a forward facing triangulated 4 link. I did on my fullsize. I had to modify the tank, but it was still in the stock mounting location. Much better than moving it into the bed.
