4 link?

[Chevalade]

Dos anyone make a good 4 link kit for our trucks....I have looked, but havn't found much.....lots of air ride stuff...but no 4 links.

Just wanting to run a 4 link so I can run a bit wider meats for traction.

Any sites or direction would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you are talking bolt in, No.

Found this in my searches....not sure if it will be of use to anyone else....but the price is close to the one above, but this setup includes the panhard bar.

How much tire are we talkin' about? The problem w/the bolt-in 4-link style kits is they won't allow for much more tire than the leafs you'd be swapping out.

In order to gain more clearance, you'll need to go to the trailing arm style rear set-up (CPP did a 73-87 kit for this) or go 4-link inside the framerails. The inside the rails set-up allows for a bunch more tire but decreases the trucks stability because the suspensions leverage is closer to the C/L of the vehicle.

If your buying new wheels you can play with the offsets as well to maximize the room that is available with the stock configuration.
