That setup looks like it would ride a lot nicer than the leaf springs. But I guess I don't really know how bagged trucks ride. I assume they ride okay or maybe even nice if they're not at maximum or minimum height. But that suspension geometry looks like it would make the truck comfortable to drive. And I suppose with the bags, you still have good load carrying capacity.

Links & bags (or coils) offer much better ride quality. My dually is night & day difference & that's w/still using load rated 235/85-16 tires.

The 6-link is supposed to be even better. I looked into one years ago when I had my '74. In the end, they're not rated to carry a load & I use my truck as a truck so a 4-bar or Truck-Arm set-up was the way to go.

The company that builds this link setup actually recommends you don’t tow or carry a serious load with it. I think because it puts all the weight behind the notch with how it’s set up. I’ve heard they ride pretty nice. Let’s hope!
