    So after consulting with some people and my fabricator I'm not cutting or doing hoops. It is still possible that the Kings may fit but I need to take them apart and measure. While it could be possible to do a swap like that alignment is a really big factor.

    DO NOT USE THE AMERICAN MOTORSPORTS LONG TRAVEL KIT.... If you don't know then you haven't done your research. I'm not here to slander anyone, but I know the guy who had the mock up kit made, and I have heard horror stories about the kit.

    It's also my understanding that damage was done to the vehicle as a result of the kit.....

    You can buy the shackle flip as a kit it's just there is some grinding required to make them fit. I would suggest an add a leaf first as it adds alittle more weight capacity. Here's a good place to read up on lifting. (Basically ebay spacer from and aal(add a leaf rear) and new Bilstein shocks)
