    hmmmm what would your wheel base be if you hypothetically used those link arms?
    Who made the links?

    Re: problem

    hmmm i would say flip them like what you were saying.... and take some more measurements.... you don't want to loose any wheel base, or else its just gonna make for a worse ride... most i hear everyone say is 120" wheel base or more is the best..... im sitting at 118" in my F100. close enough for me.... but i see most TT's at like 126... but anyways back to your truck.... it apears that the shock mounts are closer to one end than the other... i vote for flipping them around and seeing if you can work with that...

    Re: problem

    from what I've seen is the shock mounts are supposed to be closer to the rear of the links

    Re: problem

    i would flip them unless you your going for 40" of travel... one side of those arms has hiems, what does the other side have? uni-ball? rubber? delrin? poly-urathane?

    Re: problem

    I don't see any reason not to flip them...just need to reconfigure your mounting points right?
