Ditto......depends on what style of arms you are building
You cant do both,its one or the other!On the pasanger side i want to do just a strait arm off of a new custom crossmember. Then maybe an upper arm from the top of the crossmember. The drivers side i want to do like a y-link setup.

now, thats just stupid
I'm just starting my 3-link and will be using Johnny Joints on both ends. One end will be adjustable.
While thats true for radius arms,it doesnt apply to a 3 link set-up.I might be mistaken, but due to the way a radius setup works, you need rubber joints on all but the body ends of the arms. Notice that neither RE nor TNT uses more than one flex/Johnny Joint per arm and that one sits on the body end. The rubber mounts on the axle ends and the upper arm linking to the main arm are to allow for some "twist" as the axle flexes which is how any radius arm setup works.
Incorrect. I used TeraFlex Large Ends on the body (crossmember) side of mine. The axle end (lowers) use OEM bushings.I might be mistaken, but due to the way a radius setup works, you need rubber joints on all but the body ends of the arms.

What I said was Johnny Joints on the body side and all the other ones rubber ones. What did you use where the upper arm connects to the lower arm?you need rubber joints on all but the body ends of the arms
