im betting its a amatter of time... i normally used to play up at moon rocks adn funny rocks in the naches trail system... which is some of the best rockcrawling in washington.... so well see what happens.

id say id wheel pretty hard im willing to try just about anything. lol. nope calmini gears (wish i did though) no atlas (wish i did though). and i have a rear lockright locker. i figure im pushing the limits of the axle shaft where it is now.

im running 36s on stock shafts

then i would do a 3 link wiht panhard or radius arm

ive got a 220v lincoln stick welder i got for 100 dollars and it welds everything i point the stick at. for cost effectiveness you cant beat a stick welder i would stray away from 110v 70a cause youll later wish you had just bought the bigger one and saved yourself the frustration time and money

same thing i told nismojunky.... in the end its not worth it if your gonna put all this time and effort do a 3 link with a panhard bar.
" it would workbut youll lose articulation compared to a 3 link w/ panhard or triangulated 4 link. the reason being the link ends will bind under articulation but youll gain some back depending on the links end. the 5 link screads the load across more of the frame then say a radius arm. if you gonna put the design and effort to do a coil set up i would do it toward a 3 link with panhard for the front. 4 link front ends have steeering issues and would probably have to go to hydro steer because the tri 4 link would casue major bumpsteer....IT all also depends on what your using it for. are u planning on street driving it "
you could theoritically do it.......
would it be good for a front suspension. NO
would it be good for articulation and offroading. NO
is it worht the time and effort. NO
Take your time doing these things right the first time not worth rushing into it and doing it wrong...
something ive learned is that i wish i woulda saved up more and not gone with leaves but doen some type of coilover or coil set up from the get go. though while leaves are easy i want more . lol and take your tiem figuring out all the brackets and everythign as well as crossmembers cause if you dont youll end up redoing em and its a pita

-
on my sas i have a set of 33 road tires that are for the road only.... for offroad i have a set of 36 swampers... clearing 36s with a spring under will require you to cut you fenders on all for corners to avoid rubbing and even then you will probably still get a little rub.
