I asked many times if anyone has tried the Poly Performance 3-link kit, never got a responce. So i bit the bullet and ordered it last nite, and will be installing it shortly. Broncos all torn down and ready for the install, I will post pictures soon. I also feel like im a guinea pig for this kit. I have searched for many hours trying to find someone who has installed this kit, with no results. I will let you know if its worth it. lol

I will subscribe to your build thread for sure! I'm curious what hurdles you run into with their kit and what modifications you have to make for it to work well.

One thought: you could have posted your ideas on Pirate and you would have found out what's dumb and what NOT to do real fast!!;D

Welcome to the site and if you like it support it with $12 and become a contributor. You can then post pictures. There are other ways to post pictures but I would have to charge you $20. ;D

Looking forward to your build.... with pictures

I don’t want to be negative, and hope that I’m wrong; but I would suspect that a 3 link with leaf springs would cause some binding issues. I suspect that you’ll have to make the link attachments close to the leaf pivot point or the radius of the spring movement would bind with the radius of the arm movement. Good luck.
