Re: Dirt every day

I think he's asking why change an all leaf vehicle to 4-link only in the rear? I see his point in asking. There must be more to why they made this choice. I would think, from what I have seen in the 4wd world, would be if only doing one axles why not the front? Any deviation from the traditional four corner leaf springs has always been to the front. Ford radius arms, TTB, GM IFS (as well as most others), etc. I'm used to seeing any improvement to articulation begin with the front end... for whatever reason.
