by get it up there
thanks for the advise mate. (From your personal experience), Do you honestly think i should bother doing it? It seems like 4 link is the way to go, but to be able to do that might not be achievable due to the SWB factor. Eg: Fuel tank, not being able to have long enough arms etc. What are your thoughts?

shit ride on leafs. take some out and get too much wrap.
i went the 5 link set up with 2 long (35") lower arms, one upper and a panard.
im still fine tuning/ breaking/ strengthining stuff but it has been the best thing i have done.
im also spoa ruff front on lux/ bundy diffs.
with you still being SWB and full body i dont like your chances of going triangled 4 link. i have looked and looked and there is just too much crap under there to do it easily, in not running a fuel tank either.
if you do descide to go 5 link, make everthing strong, there is alot of force put on mounts.
I dont know about your maths, but im only counting 4 links in the rear (3 plus panhard)
3 link plus panhard is a bit easier to package under the rear of a zook, especially a full body SWB tin top. It will still provide you with more than enough flex when set up properly.
