Well when i get the 331 (bored 327) in my luv i WILL need a better suspension to get all them ponies to the ground. I have thought that 4 link may be my best bet. I would just like to know what some of the specifics are about putting a good 4link uin a luv.

I did mine with a set of Jegs rails and 4 link. I bought Morrison poly bushed street rod ends and had to get longer bolts. Also used Morrison coil overs. I have been lazy about getting some pictures by will try to get some sent in before too long. It comes with some basic instructions but they are not real clear on adjustment.

Well If you get you a S-10 rear end you can get a 4 link suspension bolt on for a fairly decent price! The place is called Ridetech.com they have all kinds of goodies there.just figured I'd drop my two pennies.

I have a Art Morrison back half, poly bush ends, and I am still having a hell of a time hooking up. I need a really good starting point. Any help?

luv2fast did you get your heads back on your motor.i built my own subframe and 4-link i run the bottom bar level and the top bar slight down angle .did you get slicks for your truck luv2fast?

4 link???
Damn electricians.

got BOOBIES?

check out this site, they compare 4 links to ladder bars, its under the tech tips section http://www.cachassisworks.com/ I think its pretty good info on the two setups

Mine doesn't hook yet but I have it Adjusted the wrong way and I am waiting on warmer weather to dial it in. If you have a books a million get the FEBUARY issue of SUPER ROD (never heard of it before) but it has a great article on adjusting the 4-link. http://www.superrod.com The article goes into the different effect of the bars. Such as even when the front intersect
at the same point with 2 setups,and rear at different points you can get different results and exlains what to expect.

you should get your luv scaled , they use a scale under each tire and figure out the weight distrubution , plus there is a computer program that is availiable that wil help adjust your 4-link to get the most out of it .

seeing that you are in cali there is a shop called SLEEPER SUSPENSION DEVELOPEMENT 2974 first ave. unit E La Verne CA 91750 909/392-8886 . not sure where he is in realtion to you but they can scale and set-up your 4-link for maximun traction.
