Like this?

Or do you mean link to a post in a whole different thread?

Right click the address of the old post in the address bar, scroll down to copy, left click copy. Then, In the body of your new post, right click and paste where you want it to go.

For instance, when i start my SAS thread, i want to make a link to my axle build-up thread. i have seen people title them like "axle build-up" and they are blue, and when you click on it, it takes you to their thread on that subject.

just like froader did to my axle thread and i want to title it.

You have to click to little "insert link" icon at the top of the post text box. A prompt will ask you for the URL and then the display text.

Another way.

Got to the thread you want to link to.
Copy the url.
Go to the thread you want to put the link in.
Write this:
