Will start off by saying i have no idea what the hell i am doing when it comes to links, and that is why i am here.
Like my rig the way it is, it wheels well but i have been slowly gathering the parts to link either the front or the back. And i just want my rig to perform a bit better.
Current set up: Toyota pickup, x-cab on standard cab frame, 3.Ohyeah!!! Duals, and yota axles on 39.5's. Front RUF pack 2nd gen rears with 3rg gen rears added. Rear is a set of 60" chevy springs from a 2500 broke down to a 3 leaf pack with no overload. They actually work well and kept my wheel base right where i wanted.
My main questions is, what would you link first, your rear or front end? I have no idea why you would do one before the other if you cant do both at the same time so please explain to me if there really is some kind of science behind it? I have seen rigs linked front and sprig rear and also spring front and linked rear. Is it personal preference? type of terrain you wheel? any reason to do one or the other first?
My buddy is telling me to do the rear cause my front end flexes better than my rear and he says i will gain more stability if i do my rear which makes since to me.
Not too worried about geometry and all that quite yet, i will ask about that in the future once i start cutting and laying it all out.
Thanks for any info and advise. :beer:
