Post some more pics of your rear setup. I cant make heads nor tails out of the setup. Buddy of mine and myself have been staring at these pics trying to figure out your configuration and are lost. Where is the bags?

SWEET! Nice work man.

Get you a new gas tank and mount it in the rear. Solves that issue. Plus, a body kit/skirts will make it almost look like it sitting on the rockers.

With a 3 link dont you need a panhard bar to control side to side movement of the rearend? Seems like without it it would be putting alot of stress on the joints of the 3 link bars.

Thats the same thing that I was thinking, every 3 and 4 bar set-up that I have seen has had a panhard bar.

But I do have to say that your truck looks great!! I am usually not into 2wd truck, especially ones that are lowered, but yours is something else!
