Adjusting Rear Links - Where is it????

I've tried searching, but I can't find a pic, and I'm at a loss. Do i need to have the car lifted to get at it?

Yeah, sorry for the plural, I did only mean the one 'S' shaped link.

I think I need to get the car lifted because I can't seem to find it wedged under the car on the ground. It's a shame to have to get it lifted and pay as these things take like 2 minutes to swap out.

It is buried up there, on drivers side of drive shaft, right in front of / on top of diff. It is a pain to get to without a lift.

Thanks guys. So, if I'm about to put 20" Monarch's on, do i even need to lower the rear? I've read of some on here just leaving it alone.

If you are running 25 series tires, which would be the correct diameter on back, you will have the same gap as stock, and lower would look better. If you are running +1 (30 Series), the gap will close due to the taller tire.

Yeah, it's coming with 285/30/20's. So I might just leave it.
