i'm planning on building a burb here soon a 95 or so. and just gathering some info. i've seen people use 2 links, but i know theres issues with pinion angle. anyone have any ideas?

Pinion angle is extremely important with it. The only reason I say that is because I've gone through 2 drive shafts, now I have had a steel shaft made, and I hope to not have to have another one made.

I had only 1 drive shaft. I ran a handbuilt 2 link cantilever setup with all suspension inside the frame rails ..on F150 hangers with the rear cantilever brackets copied from the KP componants 6 link kits. Never had a problem with it.

i actually decided to do the same. i'll be running a parellel 4 link and rear canti like the KP. by any chance could you give me the length and dimensions of the rear bars and dog bones? i'm having trouble getting that info from KP.
