Hey guys I have question, how to adjust and center a 4-link? I got to looking on my s10 and it's over to the right about a inch. My right tire is really close to the frame while my driver side wheel has plenty of gap. I've read and read but none of it really makes sense with me. I have a blitzluft 4link if it helps an I'll try and upload pics once I get off work if needed.

This may make me sound like an ass, but from what little I can see in the pics, I'd alredy say cut it all off and start over. This looks like a hack job, the shock crossmember alone makes me question if the installer was just making it up as he went. Also there really should be a crossmember at the top of the notches, with the bags mounted like that, the frame rails will flexing and twist with every bump.

Well I'll be honest, I am not building a show truck, I don't care if it's neat or up to specs. The truck is pretty gone with rust so I am just having some fun with it until the motor goes or something. I'll post pics up tonight but I just wanna make sure it drives straight. I know the frame will flex and what not but this truck won't see any long hauls, much less over 35mph.

I understand what you're saying and trust me if I built it I would not have cut corners like this guy did.

Ok, was there no way to adjust the bars at all to shift it any? I figured I was going to have to cut the top bars of and re mount them. But is there any way that the bars may have come loose and out of allignment(if that makes sense)

Yep what cuzican said there is no way to adjust that with out cutting stuff off

Thanks for the replies guys, I put it on the lift yesterday and did a bunch of measurements and tried adjusting the bars but they really couldn't be moved. So I started checking angles and what do you know one of the top bars on the 4 link is off. I believe they welded first and measured later. So it looks as if I'll just have to cut the welds and move it over and it should push it all back in place. I have pics but the app won't let me upload them.
