Nice Klitch! You gonna do your own fab work? Farmboy just released some complete kits but I'm guessing you knew that. We need pics when this swap gets under way!

Once I get the rear on the ground, and power to it, and whenever calipers show up for it I'll be ordering the front kit from farmboy fab like you mentioned

Front from the knowledge I have of it is the D60 (yay no d50!) and the rear is the 10.5, all from a 2002 truck.

Gonna stick with the ride height I have now, maybe wind up an inch higher but I don't want to go too high that I cant get under my camper.


B2rad, Im not sure you really want them...

I haven't been nice to it.
