Wouldn't ya have to shorten the draglink for push pull steering, as well as the ball flip? Your moving the axle forward by installing rears up front, due to the ofset center pin. I have never seen a rears up front mod done without hysteer.

I added s-10 rear springs into my 85 rears when I built my pack. For a friends we used 4" yj springs added into the 1st gen rear springs to create a RUF pack with more lift.

Just be prepared to build, modify, and rebuild, and everything will work out to your liking.Rears up front are a great way to go in my opinion.

I planned on doing the Ball Flip and some work.
I basically want to get it up in the air more [when i have the truck or SAS]
and get it ready for High Steer.

I wont be doing too much wheeling this summer...
WORK

So the ball flipped will do.
and from what ive seen and read. RUF's are the way to go.
