I'm running Marlin 5" all the way around as well.  I setup the rear shackle mounts like that so I wouldn't need more spring or shackle to level the rear.  I'm also running 4.5" shackles in the front and 6" in the back.  As far as the hangers for the leaf, I would go back about an inch from the measurement CJ gave me, at 28" back, it placed the tire forward in the wheel well.

Me neither!  Thats why I like it, & it looks strong as hell!  I want a similar plate style bumper for the front.

Yeah, Luke at 4x4 Labs in Grass Valley (http://www.4x4labs.com/) does bumpers that are similar but at the same time quite a bit different. He does them in various styles including a swing away tire carrier, gas can holders, ect. He does excellent fab work though.

Cool, heard of the shop, never dealt with them though.  I'll have to give him a call.

I have a question for you.  On the 1st page you said you ordered the 4" but here on the 3rd page you said you have the 5" springs.  Did you end up changing your mind on the springs or did you try the 4" springs?

I'm looking at 37s for my 87 pickup and it seems like 4" suspension just won't be enough clearance for the 37s without major cutting.  Cutting/pounding isn't a big deal but I'd rather not have to cut out too much :)

I ordered 4" & got 5".  I didn't figure that out until I called Marlin, and gave them the number off the spring.  They were already on, so I just stuck with them.
