ha ha fucker.....I want somthing with alot of lift that throws side like a champ.....Thanks.....smart ass



Basically a triangulated 4-link with heims or pivot joints on the axle side. Nothing special really. You could buy or build that for relatively the same cost.

Personally I would find a happy medium with the lift. Too much and it rides much too soft, even with nice shocks. Personally I never lift the back of my truck more than 3 inches, which is to get in and out of driveways. I've never understood the whole super lift thing.

same here seth, but id love to pull some shit like the 720 you built just for shits and giggles.

That thing is limited to 7 inches of lift. But it will pull a 3 wheel like nobodies business. Limiting the travel helps with that though.

What about bag placement?.....obove the axle or ontop of the link bars?

I build everything I can. I guess for me its just a pride thing. I like to look at something and say I can build that. And with the right tools it won't take any longer than any other place to build it.

i had mine built by sd i tried to make some but they just weren't strong enough. i think if your unsure how to do it then buying some would be the route to take. but if you have the knowledge and skill by all means have at it

.......I've never understood the whole super lift thing.

yeah no shit! "the ass end f my truck lifts 28.2" and the front only lifts 4" never made much since to me either!

i have all of my 4 link kits on sale. www.illusivefabrications.com

i usually order a kit from gravity-werx, and then i get an email with the dimensions, then i have to go to work and build it.....

Well you said you want more lift, so put them on the link bars. Where on the bar is up to you. This is where I said to find a happy medium. If you put it close to the pivot it makes for a lot of lift and a softer ride. In the center seems to be popular. I like to put them closer to the axle. If you look at the Nissan I did, the center of the bag is 9" away from the center of the axle on a 26" long link bar.
