ricky (whynotfab) did that to his toyota, and afterwards said he wished, for all the work and moving the tank, that he had done a 4 link. But you can probably find pics of his setup.

lol...the hell with it ill make it work..u think a 2 link is bad...there is a guy here who has a 2 link with no panhard bar.. with it lifted up in the back u can push the bed back and forth at least a foot...and he has been drivin it like that over a year...i have told him 100 times that it is stupid and he is goin to get someone hurt.....

i think im gonna have to upgrade accounts im runnin out of post

i think seth bomar (twisted minis) has a 2-link. i could be wrong, ill have to go look...

haha if he were violent he would probably beat you. He has a 5 link, a 2 link isnt even half enough for seth.



LOL. i dont know why i thought that. i just looked at his pic again and was like,,,,,, DUH! i know that ive seen an older toy with a 2 link on here somewhere! ive been painting my daughters room all day - maybe its the paint fumes!

u can take a piece of yubn and notch it to the contour of ur rearend and the attach ur bars to it either way u want to

I DO NOT have a 2-link. Like Russ said I run a 5-link. Will probably have a 4 link in the future though.

On an import truck you can't really use the stock leaf spring perch for a link mount if you want to lay out. It hits the ground before the frame does. Also you would have something like a 20" long link bar, which would create a shitload of pinion angle change.

Heres an example with a 22" bar.There it is level.

Quote from AirRideTalk.com (pictures too)"If you have 44 degrees of change at 15", that is nearly three degrees per inch. You will easily have four inches of movement in daily use; two inches up, two inches down. That equates to roughly 12 degrees of pinion angle change. And that is where you drive at, and that does matter. Pinion angle differences as small as 1 degree can cause vibration and premature pinion bearing and transmission failure."

2-links aren't a good idea in the stock hanger on import minis.

Russ has made this point on several occasions as I remember, in more detail.

why didnt i think of that lol...ill just notch the tubing...i may be able to get it free at school..im goin to be a machinist...any suggestions on bar length???ill go with 2x2 square tubing.....


thanks for the help guys...i wouldnt be able..nor have the balls to do it myself if it wasnt for streetsource.

i want to go with a long ass bar anyways seems like that would make it easyer...im just wanting to lay out on a 18" rim at the biggest...not really worried about alot of lift

sorry bout that seth. i dont know what truck i was thinkin about that had one... i know ive seen an older yota on here with one. btw: how does that 5 link work foryou? im trying to decide what to do so i can keep the factory tank and not get a fuel cell.

well the longer the better i do know that on a buddies truck we made them 4 foot long, they went under the cab and his pinoin angle change was almost none at all
