I bought the 4 link backhalf from them that's in the Scamp. No problems but I did get CM rod ends. There are things about it I'd like different like some flats on the bars but over all for the price it was a good deal.

I have done this before. Get 4 nuts that are just a little larger than the 4 link tubes. Bore the centers out on a lathe or just drill them out big enough to slide over your tubes and have them tigged on the bars where it is easy to reach while making adjustments. Make sure to clean all the zinc/cadium plating off of the nuts before welding. Beep
For a few bucks more you can buy the tube inserts
with the hex on them(all the inserts I use the LH
insert has the hex and looks nicer)... also that
kit shown doesnt have a back brace on the rear end
(thats a MUST in my opinion) so it MIGHT require a
longer set of shock mounts to clear the back brace
which is no big deal but keep it in mind... other
than that it looks like ALL the rest of that style
back halfs... unless you go with a wish bone locator
