4 Link

I need to get a four link for my truck. I have looked at the ones offered by SD, but it seems that that the bars are rather short. I'm assuming that its OK for them to be that way, but would it be better to have longer bars? I was thinking about buying the tubing and making it myself but I don't have all the tools needed to do it properly.

Re: 4 Link

You could prob call SD & get them to build the bars to your desired length (they sell tubing just for this).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: 4 Link

the ends of the bars are usually screw in so you might ask them to send it with longer bars .
porterbuild is able to make custom setups too and he allso sells complete setups from wat i understood

Re: 4 Link

Longer isn't always necessarily better. There's a point where extra length of the four-link bars add no benefit. What are you looking to achieve? I can definitely help you out. Shoot me a PM and we can see what we can come up with!

***************** sells all their 4 links built to order. You tell them how long you want it and they build it. Ive bought one setup with 36" bars and one with 28".
