Bronco 4-link pics and ideas
Well in trying to decide the best way to link the rear of the bronco I have found a few pics, I thought I would share them with all of you. If any one else has some more to add I would like to see them. Any comments good or bad about these are welcome.

This one isn't a Bronco but is a liitle diffrent way of doing the upper links that uses leaf spring bushings instead of JJ or rod ends making it a little less expensive.

I like the design on the second one, you cant beat the simplicity of it. I think having your lower arms as far down as possible without interfering with ground clearance is the ticket.
As for the first one and the duff proto-type, i would think that the huge bracket they weld on to the top of the rear housing would limit the 4 link in upward travel. but then i guess thats what BL are for. The last one mounted the lowers where i think they would work best, i don't know what to say about the beefy single upper and single center pivot. this one is sweet

Highlander,
When I loged on today, I was reading your thread in projects, and was thinking that I should start a thread (like this) for a place for pic's/ideas. Glad I'm not the only one trying to learn more about link suspensions. Galen

Those 4 links look pretty easy.. Don't get me wrong.. I know the angles and geometry is the hard part.. But Clean looking not a lot of clutter.. All the premade brackets now available helps.. I tried to order Jonny Joints today and they are Backorderd..

Maybe we could start with some definitions?
I keep seeing these words, but don't totally understand what they are refering to. anti-sqaut roll center roll axis instant center

I was getting my Jonny joints from Poly performance.. They said they are back ordered.. So I checked Summit and the same.. Checked Currie..and they are the back order source.. So I will wait a couple of weeks..

If you cannot get the JJ parts from Currie why not use the Super-Flex parts from Rubicon Express.
