If your going that far with it, ditch the lift and get a set of custom coil-overs, three link in the rear and four link in the front. Just save up your money for the coil-overs.

thats what my buddy said and he just built a triangulated four link for his rock buggy three months ago. he said the johnny joints are only 25 a peice so 175 for 7 of those i'm not sure on what material he was planning on using but the links he made on his buggy are 2" dia so the are pretty freakin beefy looking.

You can buy 2" od 1/4" wall tubing in a 20 foot stick for less than 50 bucks. More like 300. And 25 a piece for heim joints is crazy lol. I built a 4link for a truck I bagged for like 100 bucks.
