So you wanted to ask a technical question but didn't want to get all technical? I would take any advise these guys have to offer, they know what they're doing. I agree with Jimmybonez, it can't really go back that far before your slip yoke falls out.

i simply came in here to ask a favor of someone to pull me a few measurements just to double check things not to get technical with everything.. mabye im not clear?
Listen my man im not tryin to be a dick, but youre not being clear at all besides you want measurements. from notch to where ever? lets start off by telling us if youre setup. clearly you got a 2 link but do you have a notch already in your frame. are you goin with the kp 6 link? anything would help us out man

.... my truck is bagged on 22s.. it is 2linked at the moment..... i am wanting to get a kp 6link.. i want to see if my notches were installed in the correct location because the shop that bagged it half assed everything else...i dont have a factory truck around to pull some measurements.. so if the notches are off like 2 or so inches im going to have to do some work..an im not going to drop 1300 bucks on the 6link.....it does not matter what i have now or what im planing on doing..
all i need is someone to do me a fav an pull a few measurements from the center of their notches to the end of their frame. THATS IT!

Is your axle in the center of the existing notch when laid out?

Once again not being a dick but any amount of upward travel in the rear suspension is going to "pull" your axle forward because its coming from a stationary pivot point and travels on an arc not a straight line. So its pretty safe to say that when you install your 6 link its going to do the same thing and move the axel to the front of the notch. Your best bet is to install 6 link and move the notch if you want
