I'll be more than welcome to help as much as I can. I don't know much about it but I'm learning it as I mess with my truck. One thing I can say is that the ride is awesome on the street. At the the track I've gotten a best of 1.48 60's.

4 link was done by a local chassis shop. I can take pictures and post them up. If I'm not mistaken they custome made the 4 link setup and the anti rollbar is A.R.T.

If you don't mind sharing I think more people will open there eye's, Especially in the truck comunity.
So what about the rear end??? Did you stick with the 10 bolt, go Ford 9 inch, or go with something else like a Dana 60 or a 14 bolt???

I am very familiar with 4 links, but for some reason people are afraid of them.

Diff is the stock 10 bolt with moser axels and narrowed 3 inches on each side to fit 15x12-15 bogarts. I'm also running a Moser girdle cover with stud kit. I changed all my brakes to Wilwood 4 piston calipers and crossed drilled and slotted Wilwood brakes all around.

I also run a 4-link in mine. Completely different truck but a truck none the less. Here is a link to my build thread as not to take away from Roadkill's.
If memory serves me, my instant center is set up at just under 6" high and right around 60" out.
