stock link lengths?

Post by Ridge »

i am looking into doing a 4 link rear in my sierra ute with bundy diffs. i know that there are aftermarket arms available, some that are adjustable by 100-150mm for patrols and some toyotas. i am trying to find the longest stock arms available.

i know that gq patrol
upper arms = 40cm
lower arms = 67cm

does anyone else know what arms from a 80 series, surf or anything else measure too?

cheers

IIRC something like this came up a while ago, and they were told that stock Jackaroo links were the longest.

Check them out...

Front 80 series lowers are 930mm (front eye to back eye) and 750mm (middle eye to back eye).

You just measured the links on some random car parked out on the road :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
Would be piss funny if some huge tattood dude came back to his car and you were under it with a tape measure. :D
