Did you unbolt the top of the radious arms or something? That's intense

he's unbolted the front bolt in the RHS radius arm at the diff end.
in that picture above, you can see the front end of the RHS radius hanging lower than the diff.

I'm looking forward to watching this progression. Will be nice to see something quite different. All sounds pretty involved and way past anything I'd attempt but that travel with the bolt removed looks worth investigating.

Assuming a 3 link setup removes the need for a panhard too?

I think you can safely say longer brake lines will be needed

I think hover boards strapped to the chassis is the better option..

I think he will want it easily reversable.
Not much room for an xlink under there..
All he needs is 6 arms and 4 mounts bit'o'weld and he has a simple 3 link front and rear.

Yeah Joshy I think I can be your nav
And tim, bam, your right! X-links might work a heap better with heavier cars as there is still 3bushes per arm to flex through....

With a Sierra case you put two front WT drive shafts in, my rear one will have to be shortened a bit for dig tho.... So NO CVs in my car  and yeah heaps longer brake lines and maybe the hand brake cable will be fine, not sure yet.... And I might have to put man hubs on for the 1.3CV

Where has this 2 x WT front shafts come from? I keep seeing it repeated by various people and has obviously started from someone saying it once (I hope I didn't say it by mistake somewhere).
Only need one which replaces the Rear Jimny shaft. The only other shaft you'll need is a WT Jack (intermediate shaft).
Jimny front shaft stays.

Have you seen how many wires there are on a new VVT t-case?
Also what would you wire it up to? a switch?

Well I heard that from monley. Okay, jack shaft and front shaft it is.
And go through your FSM and you should find a vac hub selector switch..... Then put a switch in the cab and your done
I think to fit 1.3 CVs you will need man hubs....
