the front upper links should be low on the axle and high on the chassis,,,and the rear upper links should be low on the chassis and high on the axle...this combination creates anti-squat. if you run the front link higher on hte axle it will pull the front of the chassis down. if you run the rear links higher on the chassis it pulls the chassis down which adds to torque twist along with chassis roll and roll center.

Because of chassis and axle differences as well as terrain, you will always see varying info on what is right and what is wrong. Only way to tell for yourself will be trial and error with your truck and your terrain.
