[QUOTE="tj40ounce, post: 981022, member: 16007"] My original plan for the axle upper link bracket was to use a 1.75" hoop & ballistic fab bracket (similar to Hyena's link setup). I'm using the same setup for the frame side lower's already. I'm going to use Trail Gear's new 4-link tower that Chris Dunbar designed instead for a couple reasons. The design of the ballistic bracket puts the link mounts out in front of the housing above the 3rd member. I don't think it would look clean by the time I add enough support to the bracket, hoop & housing to compensate for the leverage. I'm sure it will work fine on the frame side lower mount since it is mounted to 2" .25 wall. I really like the one piece design of Trail Gear's new bracket. Beefy...
