    IM in the process of doing that now. I've already built custom subframe connector that I need to weld in before I swap the springs over to the inside. Im also going to move the wheel well over closer to the frame as well to make it worth it. I'm taking pics as I go along I'll post them soon. You can check my recent thread (last week) about what I've done so far if you look through my old posts or it might be on page 2.

    Sorry, the picture file was to large. I reduced it down but not enough. I also moved the shock mount location too.
