I got a set of gray links coming in. So as soon as they come in I'll slap them on. Hopefully they'll be here tomorrow. :thumbsup:

you might want to run full droop and take out whatever springs are inside the shocks now. that way your drive shaft angle and ride height won't be so bad. cause its bad. <_<

Yeah I agree with salmon. I built a scaler a while back and my upperlinks were just like yours and it completely sucked. Thing is, I thought you took out the springs inside?

Nope, I didn't, just moved them above the piston.

those bent links make it uneven, you should have gotten all four straight links
