I also got my rod ends in from Ballistic Fab, so Ive been trying to figure out my link lengths.
just guess on the lengths and build your suspension around the length ... like im doing :o
booty fab as hell ... but mine will be about 40" eye to eye and i will build around that ...

I want my top and bottom links the same length, to help my pinion angle.
The way Im measuring now Im around 30 eye to eye with the 4 link in the front.

werd ... i havent started on the front at all ... and i wont until i finish the rear ...
so mine might be done in 10 years ...
im keeping my links the same length for the same reason ... and to make it simple to carry a spare.
1 spare link to keep in the jeep and not worry about carrying more ... maybe 2 spares to make it easier to fix a botched axle.
but i wont have to carry multiple uppers and multiple lowers.

Im hoping I can stuff the tires in the fenders to get some road time. I might have to add another 4 inches to the bottom of the frame to keep it a 31 inches.

I havent made up my mind. I really want a bobbed deuce. but Im working on this every day, but I wont ever be able to drive it on the street. Im almost ready to have the body put on the new frame, The motor is mounted and axle links just need some weld.
