well mike im pretty good at reading an comprehension and my only "concern" was the link bar material thickness. It seems to me that someones comprehension needs some improvment, and also if your going to post a pic of a half finished work expect some criticsizm from everyone. Oh yea i never said i was a good speller.

it wasnt u i was talkin about man you said a concern u had with the thickness which is apreciated it was the people talkin about gusseting my bridge lol which is funney because its not even a bridge and i figured if everybodys flamin on it was the perfect fabricator like there acting they would know what it was there for seein as how theres a cross member cut out where my driveshaft would be but maybe people just figured i was to stupid to know what safety is but i guess thats what u get when everybody is perfect.

I said it b4 and hear I go again, I love 2links. My S10 had a 2link that clyde at SSC buit and i never had any problems and it is still going 2day. I am build a Dually it it will also have a 2link. Alot of the big shops like RLK, IF customs, and SSC use them all them time, people who bitch about them just don't know how to build the right.

well thanks to ssm guys like russ d, slammy, nic, and others beat into my hard head about 2 links, i finally started studying up on what makes a suspension a "suspension", and found out why my truck could do a monster burnout witha 2 link, and it wouldnt stock lol, im glad i finally listened to them a few year or 2 back. now i build setups that have good handling and braking, and traction. my fullsize barks tires less than it did stock now, thanks to a properly designed suspension. wish slammy was still on ssm, so i could thank him for all the arguments

my 2 link works ok but i will doin a 4 link as soon as i back half it....

what sold me was when we didnt have a paved driveway, if you have ever tried to get out of an unpaved lumpy steep driveway witha 2 link, youd change your mind too, because since theres no articulation, the second you get to a hump that picks up the non driving side of your rear end, boom, you go nowhere, because when the nondriving wheel goes over the hump, the driving wheel lifts too.

i had a 2 link on my ranger for 2 years, and got rid of the truck just a couple weeks ago, and its still working great, and rides like a dream. i have a 4 link on the s10 i picked up (its half forward, half reverse) and it is the worst suspension i have ever driven on! it wheel hops like crazy, and just flat out rides terrible. however, i am going to take it off, ride around on a 2 link for now, and set it up proper when i go to do my SFBD.... so all in all, i dont hate 2 links, but i would LOVE to see what a good 4 link can do for me

daily dragger no regrets sickest two links i've seen, well that work anyways!

Thanks for all the help guys if enyone has eny pictures i would like to just compare them and what not
