Aki my main man in Japan has just finished his 4 link conversion and sent me these flex pics
I'll try and find out more about the set up but I suspect it's the Pro-Link kit.

Well Moose, gotta do the body lift first to run the 34-35" tyres thats next on the list.
Rock sliders and 2.85 t/case gears are then next.
Then the rear suspension work perhaps approaching flex like Aki's rig.
After that it's decision time I maybe happy with it as is or a D-44 front could be on the cards. Still to many other things to do first though time and $ allowing.
If those J Toppers were live axle front from the factory they'd be cult comp rigs I reckon. Great power to weight with either 3.0 or 3.5 V6 and a much wider track than a Suzi or Feroza and smaller than a swb GQ.
95" wheelbase compared to 107" for the lwb.

that is a nice rear....but is too much.
Even if the front flexed nicely as well, it would probably be too much.
IMHO anyways.
Heaps of people sort their rigs out for massive flex and then change their minds and limit them back to a reasonable level.
Looks nice though

love the panel damage
true on the power to weight, for n/a motors they are FAST!

Yep Aki and his mates go hard and good luck to em.
Just about every rig in his club (except the posers) has some sort of major panel damage. One interesting mod they do is to drill a series of 5mm holes in the lower sill and pump the cavity with a liquid nails type product that dries rock hard to stop the sill from being crushed !!!
I've never heard of a Jabber being accused of having TOO much flex, thats a new one on me

If it's possible could u find out what spring rate is used 2 get that amount of flex
I've got a 3link setup on the feroza and that amount of flex would be nice
