Pictures is what would really help.

I'm doing a double triangulated 4 link setup and have been thinking about how to make the crossmember/mounts for the upper and lower links at the frame (yj frame). I could sit here and eventually figure something out, but I figure there are so many creative smart guys here I might be able to snag some ideas....ie: copy you :D

This is hardly rocket science

I go for the home made approach rather than the store bought variety. Here's a couple pics of mine. 3/8 plate and .250 wall box.

The pipe is just for setup, the real stuff is 1.75x .250 on the uppers and 2x.375 on the lowers.

The rig sat most of the winter without getting worked on, so it took some work to get rid of the surface rust. She is much cleaner now...
