Does anyone know of a manufacturer in the process of developing a 3 link rear conversion kit for the JK? I see that Rancho uses it for their long arm kit, and I also noticed that Full traction made one for TJ's.


I'd really like to eliminate the rear track bar.

 

why? correctly made its not a weak point.

 

Mostly because I like the idea of a 3 link rear... and read good things about them.

 

Do you mean a 3 link or a triangulated 4 link? A four link would be better but not sure if it could be done on the JK. The 3 links tend to have quite a bit of rear steer.

 

unless they figure a new place for the lowers that is longer and flat (less rear-steer but still some none the less)

He is talking about a 3 link with either a "Y" or "V" upper i am assuming.

 

I don't know much about what i'm trying to talk about, so i'm sure its more like a triangulated 4 link. Its the same setup that Rancho makes for their long arm kit. I'd just like to add that to my current suspension without buying Rancho's long arm kit.

 

Due to the set up of the gas tank it is really difficult to get a good 4 link set up, rancho is making a reverse set up where it connects to the rear and moves forward.

triangulated is much better than running a track bar. A track bar causes a weak point on the axle (even in the stock location) and your flex is much better without a trackbar.

 

I just went to Rancho's site and saw the pictures on the 3 link system......I like the idea but it looks like you could catch that arm on rocks and such. Looks better than that Nth Degree lift to me.

Might be easier to put a fuel cell behind the rear axle where the factory muffler is located and then the door of possibilities would open right up.
