    3 Link support

    Can anyone point me in the direction of a company who sells the banana bracket upper support? Is VPM the only company that makes that? I already have the banana bracket, I am looking for the support that will keep the axle from potentially spinning under hard acceleration.

    Order a 5" swedged tube from Speedway with two hiems. Cut a piece of 1" thick poly urethane with a 2" hole saw. That will go right in the ear on the top of the rear end. You will have to get a longer bolt for the banana bracket and a bolt for the other end. The tube is on quite an angle so you have to come up with something. I welded a nut to the end of the bolt that goes through the poly bushing. Still looking to improve on that. Total cost around $20
    Oooor.....you could just Weld the banana bracket to the rear end after you bolt it on!
