ok i took your advice and got the 52's now i need to attach them, should i do it like the tech artical? or should i do it another way ie mounts made by somebody? also going for the shackle flip in the back did the athome way just to see how i might like it and i think it is the way to go. any sugestions for who to get the mounts from and any pointers to this swap? thanx again sandypants:bow:
 
I moved the stock mounts in the front but I hate paying for parts when I can make/modify them.


For the rear:
I think a shackle flip is the way to go, ORD and diy4x make good shackle flip kits though I'm sure there are others.
 
I did mine per the article (Before DIY released his B52s). I would say use DIY's setup because it will be a whole lot easier. Except the front mounts though, you should follow the tech article as close as possible for the rest of the install.

And I couldn't be happier with my DIY rear shackle flip kit!

Good luck!
 
so will the 52's move it forward 2 inches, as in i need a new front drive shaft? or can i use the zero rate sprinds to move it back? or the b52's to move it back thanx everybody
 
Go with the DIY flips. I went with some from ORD and a friend at the same time went with DIY just to compare; His are much beefier.
