[sickhoe]

Im sorry if this already a topic my search won't work on my phone but I have a 2001 tahoe and want to build a 4 link any ideas or thoughts or ways around it would be greatand maybe some pics...thankz guyz

they have 4 links oem.

are you looking to triangulate, watts link or what?

 

[TEXAS DEMON]

yeah, why do you want to build what you already have? air bags?

 

[sickhoe]

my truck is bagged lays lowwwww front bumper on ground low but my rearend shifts on me trying to find way around it im already thinking about tubbing rearwith c notch then covering it also doing the body mount trick or doing s10 body mount but still gotta figure out what to do about rearend shifting...thankz in advance

 

[TEXAS DEMON]

well you have a few options. first off do you have the factory 4 link? if not you will need a longer panhard bar or a wish bone set up or just get a watts link. the wish bone and watts link will keep at any point of the the travel the difderentil centerd at all times. the pan hard will shift but not a lot if you have a long one.can you give a little more info on the rear set that you have?

 

[sickhoe]

I have a panhard bar that connects from pass side frame to left side axle I have a bag ontop of axle setup and that's about all I know the guy that was working on my truck cut it off but ended up welding it back on...I think cuz he had no idea what he got into but now I wanna lay frame and do it right and do it myself ya know so I will listen to all advice and pictures would be greattttttt thankz fellas

if you wanna lay frame you are gonna have to start from scratch on the rear end if youre on a boa setup (bag over axle) because there just isnt enough room.. there are dudes here who are lower than you are , that arent bagged, if youre boa.. so the 4 link is just the beginning of your problem.. the real issue is bag placement..

you can do a behind the axle setup, throw away the panhard bar. .and do a triangulated 2 link from the rear to replace it..

thats about the cheapest way to go from a boa setup, and get the extra room you need imo

lol@no one here is lower than you..

hahah anywho

you said youre not even notched yet.. so.. well.....

there are a few guys here including myself that have bagged hoes/kons that arent BOA.. just sold mine and it lays running board (1 inch to frame) on 295/35/24s and Trick lays running board on 28s.. adam is running board on 24s in an escalade.. max lays dick on his AWD and its not bagged (but hes an idiot) lol jk jk jk..

fat has a boa setup on 24s and he is about as low as you can possibly get on a BOA setup (rear).. so if youre maxed out youre probably right where he is..

The issue with boa is there is just only so much room between the axle and the body.. and by the time you figure in a collapsed bag and the mounts.. there is only so low you can go..



Lets start here....Are you laying axle to frame yet?

Def mean no offense .. but if were gonna help.. gotta see where you are.. doing behind the axle is pretty easy though.. 100$ in brackets.. might have to fab a top bar.. do a notch and a basic rear triangle or a watts link.. you can lay running board on 24s without tubs.. but the rear end pumpkin will be against the floorboard and the driveshaft will be against the crossmember.. once you hit running board.. the next 2 inches cost more than the last 8 lol.. ask trick
