Links are something that vary from person to person. Every rig is different. The best way to figure it out is to mock it all up and use a tape measurer. Every rig is different. If you are looking for our member "Dude" then use the private message feature. Did I mention every rig is different? :P |

Yeah, just get some threaded rod and fab up some links. If they don't work, make some new ones. Threaded rod is cheap and once you get the lengths, you can make some final links.

What chassis are you using and are you keeping your link mounts stock on the axle?

Well, take what your wheelbase is now, and what you want it to be. X Take your existing link lengths now Y Take .5X+Y and thats how long your links should be. Assuming your links are relatively flat, you'll get X amount more of wheelbase. |

(Current link length) + .5 (Amount you want the wheelbase to be stretched) It may end up being a bit more or less if your links aren't perfectly flat. |
