Do the link forward man!! My bars are 32" long and i ran them all the way up to the back of the cab to pinion change as little as possible..

ok ..but where do you have the front bars mounted ..theyre on the inside of the frame right ? cause the reason i was going to mount them to the rear is so i wont have to worry about draging the front link mounts cause alot of ppl mount the tabs where the front leafspring mounts were but if it will work i can mount them to the inside of the frame right?

dude i didnt get a chance to call my boy yet, but i just noticed you said you were gonna run a REVERSE 4 link, take my advice and dont do it, do a forward link reverse is nothing but trouble, i ended up having to have mine re done from reverse to forward because of all the problems i was having, save yourself the hassle and do it forward
