Weather it stays 4link front yet I don't know as it's becoming a night mare with exhaust and links prop ect to have any room what so ever for sump and iv made a shallow sump time shall tell

Personally I'm looking at a 3 link front with the lowers pretty much parallel with the chassis when viewed from above and the upper off the top of the diff to just above and in front of the front prop shaft output.

Thank you. Granted had a lot of help front friends to get it where it's at but all the same it's getting there.. And I'm hoping to have it on the road at some point but that will be a while off want to run this event on the 17th see how it all works and then can change what ever it is it may need. Then worry about lights ect. It's not just been a back axle then try it it's everything engine axles 4 link td motor gear box the works but with a bit of luck it will all pay off.

Have lost enthusiasm as most guys I used to off road with have gone over to enduros.
Have thought about selling but their not worth much and also thought about breaking it for parts as it's got 6-5-1 along with fully trussed axles with hd internal etc and wheels and tires have only cover a few hundred miles.
I'm sure the stainless 4 branch manifold and exhaust would sell along with the 1.6 etc etc and I would probably get more in parts than what I get as a tray back but would find it hard breaking it up after all work I put in building it.
That's why I need so inspiration !!

Time for links on yours too ;)
