Ha, I'm assuming you are referring to a link suspension. Honestly, I don't have a great answer to that. This started when I found the slider boxes used on pirate for cheap. When I set off to do this, I had in my mind doing a CHEAP swap to make me a little more happy with the jeep until I swap to tons. My only cost on this is the sliders and consumables.

Really though, i'm happy with how it is turning out so far. I'm hoping the new (lower) ride height will get the jeep back into street driving condition. I still have a lot of parts to collect (and money to save) before I make the next leap to tons, so it is going to have to do...
