ill be playing with the upper link soon. ill try to word this lol, would anyone say it matters if I make the clevis end fit the angle to the UCA mount angle vs cutting the tube to the angle, and building the clevis end square? mainly im curious if one way is stronger than the other.

maybe this can clarify what im thinking:
1)UCA tube square, bend the clevis/fork end, where the bolt goes through, to fit the UCA mount angle
or
2)cut the UCA dom at the angle that would allow a square built clevis/fork end to fit the mount.


somewhere between the two options ill play around with bending PVC to see if I might be able to clean up the arms obstruction to up travel. hazard front tube bender acquired cheap, hopefully .120 wall is thick enough not to kink.

I settled on JJs for 3 of the joints, barnes enduro weld on flex ends for the other LCA joints. 2x2x.25" LCA, 1.5"x.120 UCA dom, planning on building the clevis as mentioned above.
I have not settled on shackles to compliment the HD relocators, still need to see if the current stock IRO shackles will hit the relocator brackets. Im needing about 4.75" shackles for a good 45*, my current shackles will work if they dont clash. otherwise IRO booms or RE 5" shackles should be close. trying like hell not to get this above 4.5" lift.
