Greetings long time no post.

I just got tasked with looking into an older style 4.6 Mustang susp and heard of a home made 3 link rear susp setup. Anyone know what this is?

Maybe its lower control arms and a custom torque arm and no upper control arms?

My thoughts on the rear is a set of lower control arms with adj spring mounts and adj upper control arms, but this 3 link thing is interesting.

I think you are talking about a 'poor man's 3-link' popular on the Rustangs, at least pre-SN95s. Add a panhard bar, and pull one of the upper control arms. That way, you can add stiffer bushings and not have the suspension bind in the corners.
