Well, it finally moved under it's own power. It started as a simple leaf over and because of no funds, turned into a lot more.
The leaf over still need a different leaf pack, but the one's I made will work. Since the axle was moved back an inch, the stock driveline is to short. That's ok though, I have already installed the SYE and will order the driveline Monday.
You'll now notice that the front hanger is now flush and the rear mount is thorough the frame now.

Here you can see the E-brake comes in the opposite side. The shocks are now on the top of the axle nearly vertical. The battery is also in view, the commpressor will now go were the battery was. The air shocks have full control from inside the cab (fill, separate releases, and valve to open or close between shocks).

The interior also got a makeover. The amps were remount with a cleaner look. And the headliner was dyed black for a little different look.

so you just swapped your rear axle to spring over. Are those the same factory springs? On my hardbody the rear springs have had a negative arch for a couple of years now.

If you see the new mounts you'll see how I keep the same height. The springs sit almost flat but not quite. It is a mix of stock and aftermarket springs. The spring pack will be replace with a custom one soon.
