New SVC 4Link W/Bed

I believe that info is in the Ddl install thread.

More than I'm comfortable with, it's compressing the axle control shocks completely at full throttle. I'm changing oil and valving in them to see if it helps, but like the idea of a third link more.
That's why I'm watching this thread with such interest, I need to mount a link up top, I'm curious to see jarretts solution to maintaining bed clearance.

so your going to stiffen up the compression dampening then.

As you could imagine a few of these build progressed quite a bit further then initially anticipated. The LT kit is essentially "done" and has been mounted but no testing can be done until the back halfs are done. Most likely reveal timeframe will be around May

so to truly test the the 4wd lt you need a rear setup that can keep up or out perform it in the rough stuff, got it

On the axle control bumps, yes.
There's a point where it is going to start to act like a linked truck with too much sway bar though, and that's why I'd like to get pinion angle controlled independently of the axle bumps.

Couple more pics of the progress. It still has 3 more inches of bump to go, we just need to trim a couple more spots under the bed and see how close the upper link mounts we get. It's gonna be close thats for sure but it's turning out pretty cool so far.

We finally had the chance to bump and droop the truck out this morning. We are getting 22.75in of Travel with keeping the bed, not to bad.

Hell yeah, 22" of linked travel is a ton more effective than the same amount of spring travel, if it were even possible.
Are you bumped out on the frame with the axle tubes, or do you run out of room on the upper link mounts under the bed first ?
