3 Link Question...
 
I am having to 3 link the front of my Sammy-ish rig due to clearance issues. My question is, should the upper (frame) mount for the panhard be to the inside or outside of the frame?

Thanks!:beers:

Put it outside, that way the panhard bar can be as long as possible and won't pull the axles to 1 side as bad when it drops out. Also if you have normal steering(not full hydro) keep the panhard bar parallel with the drag link.

What's not clearing that won't allow a 4 link?

That little thing on the bottom of the engine called the "oil pan"...:D

If you have hydro steering I would run a 4 link set up. I dont understand why you cant clear the oil pan.

REverse the triangulation of the bars that aren't clearing the pan... there shouldn't be any reason it wont clear...

fark 3 links and panhards... they are the suck. might as well run a radius arm setup.
