Curious about 4-link suspensions

[diesel_s]

I have a 2001 Explorer Sport, lowered 3 inches...I want a better ride and someone mentioned to me about converting to a 4-link suspension setup... I've heard of them but I have no clue where to even begin with those things or how much I should be looking to spend.... any ideas?

Do you have fabrication skills? If so I think it wouldn't be that hard to make your own. I'm sure you could find writeups online.

I got some fabrication skills, I looked up some stuff online and I just get little bits and pieces here and there. Its not like I get a piece of how to do this and that, its the same bits and pieces. Feels like something is missing from the write-ups I've seen.

well you would have to buy a kit or else nothing will be right. even if your a fabricator, your not and engineer. but they are very simple set ups. look at pictures of prefabed race cars that have a 4-link just to get an idea of what you will be getting in to. also, if you want a better ride..... then dont buy a ford.....lol.... or an suv for that matter.... but really try to find some softer coil springs or something.
