4 Link

I have a 72 long bed. Looking to put 4 link and a ford 9 inch narrowed to fit wider tires under. Not going to cut the frame for the narrowed rear. Wont the truck to hook up under power lots of power. What is the best 4 link set up out there you guys have seen?

Re: 4 Link

some type of parallel 4-link would be your best bet for racing. Just make sure it is adjustable for track conditions. And you'll need a panhard bar to keep the rear centered.
