Actually I did a little homework on this and Pascal is right. The two link setup with a connecting center link instead of panhard does put alot of stress on that center link for a daily driver. That means every time the rear suspension articulates it is twisting that center link is being stressed. But I don't mean to get into your crapfest on each other. No hard feelings BAGD RANGER

Anways, if you are looking for a good rear link setup that is fairly inexpensive just run a two link system that uses U bolts on the axle instead of welding them on the axle and run a panhard bar to keep the rear end centered. Simple but effective.

i had the same setup once and instead of welding it to the 2 forward bars i put in heim joints to allow for flex and yes i ordered all of it from silverstar. never had a prob with it that way...

im runnin a 2 link on mine btw w/ a panhard...

I have a 2 link with a connecting link attached between each link with a heim joint at each end, no stress factor there.

you can run a 2-link with a watts link and your rear-end won't move at all side to side, and no worries about stress on your links either.

installed properly the watts links is kick a#s!

i had a parallel with a panhard, but it wouldnot lay on 20" with ac, so i sold that bitch. and built one that would HAHAHA just jokin i love rangers layed out i just wanted a bigger truck
