ok i'd like to put new coils on the front of my ranger and a 4 link with coilovers in the back. I dont need bags, because i plan on putting a turbo on it and making it sort of like a sleeper. My question is, do you just build a 4 link and bridge and everything like a bag setup but just weld on tabs on the axle and the bridge for the coilovers to mount up? Also, if i run a triangulated 4 link is there any need for a panhard bar? Could you please post pictures of coilovered 4 links? Oh and i'm not tubbing it out as of right now, so they don't necessarily have to be tubbed out pictures.

from what i have seen on rods...on the back they run parellel 4 link with coil over shocks in a V from the axle to a cross bar that goes from frame rail to frame rail to keep the axle from swaying. i don't have any pics because all i have seen were on speed TV and American Hotrod. hope i was able to help. oh fyi they said on speed tv that you have to upgrade the spring mounts on the axle or they will blow out after time..

yea you will still need a panhard to keep it from going side to side. I would look into a watts link tho like the one totallypolished sells.

a 4 link is a 4 link, only thing is you can run a shorter setup if wanted, but a 4 link is a 4 link. the wishbone, the 3 link, the triangulated 4 link, parallel 4 link (with something to hold the rear end from movin side to side) hell you might even wanna do a torque arm setup?? these are all setups that can be put on race cars. just needs to be setup right for handling and antisquat and all that jazz for good traction.
