The Wide Open Design Custom 7075 Aluminum Suspension Links are built in-house for custom 4-link suspensions, steering links, and other high-load off-road applications. Each link starts as solid 7075 aluminum bar and is cut and threaded to your specifications, giving you a link built around the exact length, diameter, thread size, and thread direction your suspension requires.

7075 aluminum is an excellent choice for rock crawlers and off-road buggies because it can flex under hard impacts and return toward its original shape rather than remaining permanently bent like a steel link can. With diameters from 1.50" through 2.50" and multiple thread options, these links can be configured around everything from lighter trail rigs to heavy-duty custom suspension builds. 

Includes:

  • (1) Custom-Cut 7075 Aluminum Suspension Link
  • Threads Machined to Selected Size & Direction
  • Wrench Flat Machined on LH Threaded Side When Applicable

Important: These links are custom made to order and are non-returnable. Double-check the required length, diameter, thread size, and thread direction before placing your order.

FAQ

Why use 7075 aluminum instead of DOM steel suspension links?

7075 aluminum can flex when the link contacts rocks or other obstacles and return toward its original shape rather than remaining permanently bent. This makes it well suited for suspension links that regularly see hard contact in rock crawling and aggressive trail use.

How do I choose the correct link diameter?

Link diameter should be selected around the vehicle, link length, suspension design, joint size, and intended use. Wide Open Design offers these links in 1.50", 1.75", 2.00", 2.25", and 2.50" outside diameters.

Why would I order one right-hand and one left-hand thread?

A RH/LH configuration allows link length to be adjusted by rotating the link without removing the rod ends from their mounts. When applicable, WOD machines a wrench flat on the left-hand threaded side to help identify thread direction and make adjustment easier.

What thread sizes are available?

Available options include 3/4"-16, 7/8"-14, 7/8"-18, 1"-12, 1"-14, and 1-1/4"-12. The 1"-12, 1"-14, and 1-1/4"-12 options require a 1.75" diameter link or larger.

Can I return a custom aluminum suspension link?

No. Each link is machined to the dimensions and thread configuration selected when ordering, so custom links are non-returnable. Carefully verify all measurements and options before submitting the order.
