Default Cheap/ easy upper link mounts

I've been building a WK crawler and did not want to wait for the tlt link mounts to come back in stock so I just made upper link mounts out of 1/4 inch aluminum square tube($2 worth could make 10 sets of link mounts).

Just cut it to length I think mine were 3/4 of an inch,

drill holes to mount it to the axle(the middle two holes that the old 3 link mount used) and

drill holes going the other way through the tube to attach your upper links to.

I made made more than one set of mounting holes (the holes going parrallel with the axle) so I could easily change my drive line angle and wheelbase if needed. Ive got pictures on my comp but cannot figure out how to post them. I can email them if anyone is interested.

Send me a pm if you ever want to go crawling. I have a couple of cool places in southern ohio that I want to try. Know any good places around us? I live just out east.
