[2low72]

Does anybody know a place in the DFW area that will install a 4 link for me. I don't have the equiptment to do it myself so i will have to have someone do it for me. Thanks for any info.

Many of the newer 4 link kits are bolt ons these days, just hunt around for a while and find one that best suits you.

Hills Hot Rods isn't to far its in lubbock, there probly expensive.
Then theres Extensive Metal Works down by Houston I think, but you probly don't want to drive that far, + I know there expensive.
I've heard of a place called Texas Hack Shack it's in Garland wherever that is.
I'm shure theres alot of other good places, specially in DFW area.


stueber68 is right most of them are bolt on kits now. I think they are a little bit more expensive, but your gonna be payin some one $500 or more to put one on anyways probly.

[2low72]

The only ones I can find are for 73 and above. I'll keep looking and thanks for the info.

laid67c10, that would be great. I have no problem getting a trailer and taking it somewhere. I guess PM me and let me know

Do you already have the 4-link? Most places install what they sell. Are you doing coil-over shocks/springs or air ride? You need to include this info to help choose a shop as some places are more drag-strip only & others are street-rod friendly.

I'm prob padding the estimate but I would guess 16-20hrs labor @ $45-60hr depending on the shop. I know it sounds kind of high @ first but if you consider: a) the amount of time removing all the original hardware/suspension from the frame b) the amount of time removing all the original hardware/suspension bracketry from the rear end housing c) plotting all the new bracketry positions d) welding everything e) installing the 4-link bars, shocks, springs f) re-routing the brake lines if required g) final completion issues & some basic detail painting to make everything presentable. It adds up quickly.

You might call Stoked Out Specialties in Rockwall (20mins east of Dallas) for an estimate. I know first hand this is a high caliber shop (they built last years GoodGuys early-model truck of the year). IMO you get what you pay for. IIRC, they prefer to use their sources for parts because they maintain good relationships w/their vendors in the event of any issues. Look them up on the web.

Yeah i'm more then likely going to buy from whoever can install it. yeah i also forgot to mention it's for an air bag setup. I'll be sure to give them a call. Thanks

Two places that might be able to help you are www.killerridez.com or www.krustyskustoms.com. Both are in DFW area.

Keith Craft Motorsports in Plano can also do the work.

[bagged69c10]

I would not suggest the Hack Shack. Ive heard of a lot of hacked up stuff comes out of there. Id go with 72Blazerdude^.

Does krustyskustoms have a shop? I see they sell parts via the internet, but I didn't see a shop address.
