Welp I tore the front Axle out the X tonight and started looking at ideas on the links.

I'm thinking of a radius arm type setup that has 2 lower links that connect to bottom back side of the axle on each side.  Then links run from that to a bracket that is above the lower link (about the height of the to of the diff)

I'm also thinking of just the lower links and then 1 link to the top of the diff.

I don't think I can fit a triangulated 4 link in it because of the oil pan.

If I do the radius arm type setup Or Y Link setup I have to figure out how long to make the main links.

Here are 2 pics 1 with 46" links and the next with 55"ish links.

Here are the pics of the old front crossmember that held the leafs in the front. Can you see the crack that was formed at Harlan? Yup.... Nuff said about that.
