Gearstix Posted October 3, 2008 Author Report Posted October 3, 2008 http://www.suicidedoors.com/4-link-kits/kp...-cantilever-kit ? What would you benefit with the 6 link vs. 4 link for the cost? 2005 Blazer Build... Mach 5 SPL-12s, Audiopipe AP3000.1D..
02Blazer Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 to me , if your gonna spend that much money on this project , just go with a notch and wheel tubs , in the end you will be glad you did , trust me on that , the cutting off your bed is not that big of a deal , you wont lose your whole bed to the notch cover and wheel tubs , you will have plenty of space for your subs and whatever else you want to put back there ..................... btw, if you go with the KP 6-link , get the full rear differential wrap replacement made by SD, it uses all of your rearend bolts instead of just the top ones like the KP does , it will eventually make it leak from the rear end housing (the KP one)....................................
Gearstix Posted October 4, 2008 Author Report Posted October 4, 2008 http://www.suicidedoors.com/4-link-parts/s...p-s10-link-kits That? Whats the major difference between the 4 and 6 link? 2005 Blazer Build... Mach 5 SPL-12s, Audiopipe AP3000.1D..

Whats the major difference between the 4 and 6 link? a 6 link is usually a bolt-on setup and that the bars go foward and rearward of your axle and it's a bag on bar design , most people get it cause like i said , it's a bolt on design ( the geometry is built into it , where a 4-link , you have to and can change the setting up of the geometry of it ) did that make sense, i hope it did , not quite sure ............ and YES , that is exactly what i was reffering to , read the description and see why i think you should use it ........

Biggest worry I have is the aligmnet of everything so the truck drives straight and it all functions normally and if I notch the bed, it will be straight and strong, but with a pro welder... I think I should be good. I think you can buy the pinion things from JTR... uhh http://www.jagsthatrun.com/S-10_Order.html#blocks its there somewheres.. 2005 Blazer Build...

Yeah I know how to do the notch.. I have looked at a few photos of bag builds, trying to educate myself... hmm.... I wish I knew what fittings and junk to use... would be really nice if I could sit down on SDs site and pick out everything I would need. 2005 Blazer Build... Mach 5 SPL-12s, Audiopipe AP3000.1D..

Gearstix Posted October 4, 2008 Author Report Posted October 4, 2008 why can't you ?????Cause I don't know what I need exactly.. I don't know what goes with which.. like fittings and lines and gauges and shit.Plus I don't want MONSTER lift, but more than stock would be neat.. 2005 Blazer Build...

Plus I don't want MONSTER lift, but more than stock would be neat.. go to FBIRIDES .com , go to bottom of their home page , on the left it will have '' installation guides '' , click it , find either f.b.s.s airbag assembly diagram , maximize the screen , look in the middle of the diagram and it lists every fitting u need ...........
