Air over leaf vs triangulated 4-link with bags????
Hey guys have been constantly debating on which install I should do. I already have shackles/hangers in the back. I do not want to c-notch my frame or lower my truck anymore than it already is.
My concern is ride quality and trailer hauling capabilities. I will be doing all required welding, fabrication, and installation required so installation fees are not a concern. If yall had a choice which setup would u choose with everything considered including cost? Thanks! Posted via Mobile Device

Links, end of story.
Why you stuck with the triangulated 4 link though, why not an easier to package parallel 4 link with a panhard. I have done that on a couple newer trucks and worked out very well

4 link with a panard rod. done right with good bags it'll haul more weight that stock.

Neither one. If your not going to C-notch then both methods are a waste of time and money. I suggest you add a small set of helper bags (AoL style) and be done with it. You will be able to adjust your ride and increase your towing capacity with minimal cash outlay.
