Im sure there are videos on the internet that explain how a 4 link works. What do you use your truck for that you need a 3 or 4 link set up?

Companies make kits, TG makes a pretty easy kit, other compines like Ruff Stuff make a "universal" link kit.

Expect to spend about 2k min on links/shocks/ steering stuff, and thats not including the cost of the axle. Quality parts aint cheap. Whats your budget look like for this swap?

Why do you want to go links over leafs? This is no small project your taking on here...
