    Most of the front four link kits that are made Deuce specific will work on either a fendered or non-fendered car.... If in doubt, call the company that makes the 4 link kit before you buy one.....

    See where the upper 4 bar is located on the frame rail ?

    Then again here on my 32 chassis



    Then again, my chassis with the fenders installed



    The 4 bar set up from TCI ( and MOST of the others ) will clear front fenders ... installed in their original position.

    In my opinion
    the 4 bar setup is vastly better than a hairpin setup.

    1 ) more ground clearance
    2 ) the axle has less king pin caster change during axle movement UP/DOWN
    3 ) better ride
    4 ) easier to adjust caster


    If you do not understand toe - in, caster and camber
    Do yourself a favor and go here
