I have not. The 52" springs work good enough.

I think I'll just set my front spring hanger up so the back hole is in 52 swap location. I'll try it with 56s and see how it works. That way I can always switch to 52s
I've got 56s but I did my swap before the B 52s were around.
I did not move my upper shackle hanger.
If you plan on running like that for a while I would box in the shackle area.
They are flexy but they do wear out pretty quick.

Started making my front shackle hangers tonight. Should have them finished up tomorrow. I'll pull the front axle and start going though it this weekend.
Next to one I made for my k10.

No! Then I will feel so unworthy I will never do anything but order bolt ons.

Haha. I can rarely bring myself to order a part if I can make it myself. And I guess I've got more time than money. But I don't have much of either!
I'm short on both... Definitely impressed with your work though! Even more knowing it's all done the hard way!

It definitely takes a lot of time! That's for sure
Definitely does. I enjoy it but I really need to update/upgrade some of my tools. And I need to clean my garage! That would help me a lot. Haha! Keep it up. I enjoy seeing your work!

Thanks. Tools definitely make a world of difference. Thankfully my boss let's me use the shop for all my stuff.
I need to talk my boss into getting better tools. I can use the shop but I'm set up better in my garage.
yeah, none anywhere else.....
Haha, you have a serious need of recognition.
Settle down.
