Default High clearance link Question for everybody.

What is the big gain to high clearance links with these huge bends in them for clearance?
When your driveshafts hangs way below them.
I can see them being good on a clod buster since their are no driveshafts but a shafty????

I have seen many people run them and I have also seen seesaw back and forth on the driveshaft and tear tear their driveshaft up.

Yes dirk even you can respond with a smartass remark.

Your right about the driveshaft. That's why I angle my rear pinion way up to get the driveshaft as close to even with the links. If the drive shaft hangas way below the links there is really no point to haveing high clearence links.
This is the best pic I have right now, but you get the point.

i only bent the rear on mine. The i angled the pinion upwards.
The front i just left alone because rotating the front pinion will reduce steering.
