I work in a machine shop so I can cnc all the brackets that weld the the axel tubes. Just wondering about the cross bar and where it sits between the rails, are does it matter. Will the link Bars will put it in position depending on there length.

As far as the cross bar goes I used pictures from the Web of units that people had already installed and figured it from that. I'm not sure if you can see in my photo but I located my coilovers behind the axle and my upper arms go in the opposite direction of the street lynx setup and I put my lowers inside the frame rail. I was able to run a full 2.5 in exhaust.

I forgot to mention that I used a fuel cell instead of the original tank
 
Mine is not a Street Lynx....but it is a 4-bar that I can run parallel (top and bottom bars) or as a 4-link (32,36,40 w/ @6" instant center)

I run a panard bar (not triangular configuration ) unmodified factory gas tank, and a rear sway bar.....no rear seat, I don't have any kids (my parents say it is court ordered)
 
dwhip did you make your lower rod and bottom shock bracket thats welded to the housing ?

Any measurements are a templet?

The brackets are from ridetech. They were part of a complete kit for a triangulated 4 link. I did have to make a spacer between the bottom shock mount and the bracket to keep the shock body from hitting. You may be able to buy the brackets separately . I cut the lower bars to the length I needed , then rethreaded the tube. I did the same with the top bars and the brackets are Chassis Engineering . Hope this helps .
