I've never seen a 2 link welded on. A 2 link usually uses your stock front hangers or you can fabricate your own. I decided to move mine forward so the link bars would be longer and give me a better ride. I just cut off the stock bushing on the leaf sprnigs and welded it onto a piece of 2"x2" 1/4" wall box tube.

My suggestion to you is to just lower it, if your not going to notch it. Is it really worth bagging it if your truck isn't lower than a static drop?

See thats the thing, I already have 5" hangers and shackles in the back, but I want to go as low to where my tires will rub on the fender. And then be able to pop it back up. We did my buddy's dak with the air over leaf system from ART but I kinda wanted something different because I think that puts too much stress on the leafs.

Smokindak... nice..very nice. The front is a little rough lookin but the rear rocks. I'm glade to hear that other people arn't afraid to make there own setup. For the articulation issue, Jason at www.suicidedoors.com has a new pivot joint thats looks like it will hold up to some punishment. I'm gonna switch my setup to these on one end of my bars
