Default 4 link anyone

I was thinking about going with a 4 link with coilovers.

I don't want air bags but I want a different rear set up.

anyone have one?

Someone was on here and had one like this, but I don't remember the site for his pictures nor his ame.

I asked about this a while back and found out that you could prolly get one made for bags and adapt some kind of coil overs for it rather than using bags.

That will be my next mod . You can go with a tahoe 5 link if can find 1 trash and get the rear end with the brakets but remember you has to relocate the brackets perfect and reinforce them.

any hotrod place that's done rearend fabrications before can set you up. i was quoted $1500 for parts and labor for a 4 link setup using pretty much the best parts on the market with qa1 shocks and everything. i think if i was going to go that far though i'd want to get a little bit stronger rearend so i wouldn't ever have to go back and cut into it or anything down the road.

I have the 4link with panhard but its on bags. I'm not sure about the newer style of 4-link that www.ridetech.com has, but I imagine if someone wanted to, they could convert my kind of bag to coilovers.

With my 4 link that I have in my truck, you could easily swap the bags out for coilovers. Air ride technologies has an option to use their shockwaves in the rear, which is the same thing as a coilover but it has an airbag with a shock in the middle. You could get that kit minus the shockwaves and bolt on your coilovers and be done with it. Also the kit is bolt on as well so it would be easy to do. Except for the C-notch. that requires a good amount of cutting
