get after it, I wanna see what u have planned, I converted an 86 4wd truck to 2wd with long travel using the stock lower mounts beefed up and new upper frame mounts.  1" uniballs top and bottom with a stock 4wd spindle with lots of gusseting.  I went 2.75 wider on each side and pulled 16" of travel out of it. I have it bumped and strapped for 15" of safe travel so I don't destroy my coilovers and uniballs.  and I moved the axle centerline 1.5" forward to keep the 33's outta the cab.
