Trying 4 link my astro

Hey, I'm about to start working on puttin my 4 link on the van, and I just noticed that I dont have shit for room, cause the differential is off centered, so I can't put a link on the top right side. If any one has any ideas, or suggestions, please let me know.... thanksheres a pic of my rear endwww.hardcoreoffroader.com/100_1990.JPG

i dont see any reason why you cant link it. just make sure you put the top bars the same measurements apart and have enuf angle in the bars to hold the rear straight

You could maybe bend a piece of tube right over the diff and weld it to the axle tubes, then mount your upper bars to that tube going from the center out foward ? Or just take them bags and put them on the lower bars and you'll have plenty of room. Or even a cantilever setup if youve got the skills.

Off subject a little bit here i guess, but do you think you should just have all of your wires, your valves, your air tank and your battery just lying all over the floor. I am not hating or anything it just does not look safe to me at all.

i think i got some good pics in my profile of my link.

Note above pictures no sub frame added to install 4 link.

What do you mean the diff is of centered? You mean between the axles or up and down. I don't see how up and down would matter. And I dont see how it can be off from left to right.
