Ok, I have the KP 4 link already. I've been thinking about getting the cantilever attachments, because it'd offer a better ride and have more lift than the bag over axel set up. My main question is what type of notch you guys running with the 6 link set up. Do you have to have a big notch or will a bolt in work? I was going to just put in a 8 piece c-notch, but if I can get away with a bolt in and lay out on 255/35/20's than it'd save me a lot of work. Any info is much appreciated. Thanks

I have just a bolt in notch in mine, I'm about 1" from laying out. Do you have a NBS or OBS?

I will be running a bolt on for a couple months...it should be fine, but won't completely lay the rear of the frame with 255/35/20's. I will be likely cutting the bed and going with a big notch so I can have a low ride height and not bottom out.

It's a nbs. So I guess I might as well get the 6 link now, so I'll lay out. It'd suck to have to go back and remove the bag brackets off the notch and the axel later. Thanks guys for the quick response.

you can get a 8 piece step notch, and weld it in under the bed, and cut off the excess. It will lay you out.

What about the driveshaft, with the lift you get from the 6 link. It looks like it'd almost pull it out, lol, must put it at a really awkward angle?

You align the truck at your desired ride height and set the pinion angle from 1-3 degrees...it will be outta whack when layed out or locked up, but will be fine when you put it back to ride height.
