Are those Alcans? Specs......
50'' in length, center pin moved forward by 1.5''. ord designed them i just gavem the specs of my truck and i believed they sent the specs to alcan i think. lol
We design every single part of the springs from top to bottom, Alcan builds the springs to the specs we give them because they do a good job and they're close to us.

So with the pin 1.5" forward on those, will the axle be moved forward, or with the longer overall spring will it be close to the stock location?
ya, it moves the axle forward 3'' from stock. stock springs are 47'' with 23.5'' to center pin on each side. my springs are 26.5 from rear eye to pin and 23.5 from front eye to pin. if the pin would of been left in the middle it still would of moved the axle forward 1.5''. im goin to have the b52 kit up front too. and got my hanger clocked foward like you would for a 52 swap.
Post up some pictures of the install, you've got my attention.

How did you decide on a length of 50"?
just sounded good
and since i had i wanted to pin so far forward it leaves room on ethier side. i plan on runing 42's andwanted plenty of clearence of firewall. when i got them tho the pin looks alot forward then i thought. and for some reason i thought i ordered them with the pin in the middle. 
but i dont think it would of given me the clearence i needed for 42's
