You guys are right. It's a parallel. I got it all installed. Now I need to make a panhard now. My pics won't load here. I will try again later.

 

Cool. Looking forward to seeing some pics. I am currently partway through my triangulated 4-link install. I bought a similar looking kit (but tri'd) from eBay for cheap. I probably would have bought the kit you bought, but I did not see it. However, as you mentioned, it not being a true bolt-in for the 48-49 is too bad.

I am partial to the Watts link over the panhard bar, but the panhard is much easier to install and the difference isn't very noticeable.

 

second_chance.custom, Glad that one got straiten out... Now let see if we can figure out why you can't attach a pic. Is your pic already hosted on the web somewhere or are you trying to attach a pic from your computer hard drive? For a non-paying supporter of FTE, you can not attach from your HD. Your pics have to be uploaded to the web first, then use the button above that looks like a postcard with a mountian on it to copy the URL address of the pic. Hope this helps. Looking forward to seeing the pics.

 

I tried loading from Photobucket but for some reason the link didn't take.

 

Can you post the URL address so we can see if we can help.

 

Yes. I'm at the office right now so I will have to do it later when I get home.

 

Please post pics,
I have 4 link kit from tci that I have not installed yet.They say form 48 to 56 and wondering about cutting bars,drilling holes is scaring me when I thought it was a bolt in kit?

 

I just installed the TCI kit. Look for my 1954 f100 thread. Page 3 or 4. Its really really easy. You should know center line and ride height. Hardest part is welding the brackets to housing.

Aaron54,
I should have also said my truck is 1951.From what I read the leaf mounts on 48 to 52 are 45" and on 53 to 56 are 47.5" not sure if it will make a difference or not maybe some else might have ran in to this?

 

Alright, so I'm all done with the install. Here are some pics.

Did you get the stance you wanted?

 

Yes I did. Now I just need to get my 3" drop axle for the front.
