Default looking for a 6-link

well,

with my past topic of the rear end rebuild, i decided that i'm going with a 4 or 6 link setup. anyone one know where i can get a setup at other than from art morrison? i figured that i mine as well do it right and not have to worry about it later......true...... if i find a setup, i will be selling my original parts.... i took apart the t-arm assemblies and sandblasted the parts....so, possiblities for those that will help me find a setup........ i would need the link and the axle...not sure if the differential would fit or not.....i would also need a longer driveshaft too..

thanks

Your idea of a 6 link is different then mine. I run a 6 link, use the stock trailing arms and rearend. In my case it just involved removing the clips from the yokes, shortening the yokes slight and installing an upper strut rod along with dropping the inner lower strut mounting point.

This isn't Norval's setup, but it accomplishes the same thing.

thanks for the link. i got an email from art morrison and they helped me out.... if i use a 4 bar setup that will have to cut down some and the ford rear with air setup it will work. i just have to cough up some cash for this unexpected issue...... hopefully i can get rid off my stock items to get the new items.

thanks

That's basically the same setup that I have and anyone doing the work can duplicate it for about $100 or less.

I like this set up. I like the way they made everything square or level how ever you look at it. This is a major improvement over the stock set up.
