8.8 solid rear questions

first off, i do NOT want the grannys kit. thank you...

ok, so i just got my 8.8 soild rear from a 90 fox body. i am going to attempt to put it in my 91 FC. but i was looking for some pics or tips on how to do this. i am a certified welder and have the tools to do this. but i have never set up/designed a 4 link or ladder bar set up before.

i do not want to cut the body. i want to keep it a completely stock chassis. so maybe in the distant future, i could go after the stock chassis/body record. like i said. VERY distant future. its a dream...keeps me motivated.

anyways...

4 link has more tuning capabilities. but a ladder bar might be easier/cheaper. any info on this would help...

pics are a huge help here.

but im not sure about the 4 link or ladder bar set up. i could just kind of copy the grannys placement of the 2 links, (minus the shocks on the same mount) and try and fit a 2 links above that. but i dont think theres room.
