If nothing else it gets rid of the rediculous looking batwing on the axles

4 link should be stronger since you have more points of contact. With the stock 3 link, there's just one ball section that holds it all together at the chassis and that piece doesn't seem that strong at all.

If you like the articulation, then stick with the 3 link. Tons of articulation isn't necessarily a good thing, though. That's why most comp crawlers only have about a soda can worth of articulation and nothing more.
