I had begun the work and bought all the parts for a Chevy 63” leaf spring swap. But after some discussions and evaluation going for the links... gonna take a bit to do but I will enjoy the build out..

Mapped out 3-Link w/ PanHard, running ballistic Fab joints (love) those! Along the way might swap in a 10gal. fuel cell...not much of a need for more than that...

Reconfigured some leaf packs I had on the shelf... replaced the spherical bearings in the Baja bushings and reenforced the mount...

Dave, what's the frayed and cracked cable in the first pic?

I'm guessing it's the parking brake cable.
