I'm trying to find out what are the pros and cons of each are.
I already know the advantage for doing rear links vs SOA leafs, to reduce or elimitate axle wrap and probably a little more articulation. But what about the front? If you have a 4 linked rear, what is the advantage of having a linked front instead of a SOA with updgraded YJ leafs. I'm doing a normal shackled front so no reversal, this is a trail rig, not a daily driver. I've heard approach angle is a little better in the linked front but the leafs are a little more stable and help to keep the rig from moving too much side to side in the front.
So what are the pros to having a linked front and cons?
Same with leafs in the front, pros and cons?
