Suspension is EVERYTHING
He would of had to of made them shorter to clear the frame or set them lower. Just my .02 cents on what I've seen from pic's but the OP can tell us for certain.

Thanks 40Habits Was not sure but that makes sense. No worries about the chart. I have some '94 Aerostar coils on it now but just picked up a set of Front '89 F-150 2x4 coils that I want to try. They seem to be a bit stiffer. Right now with no shocks on it, if you push down on the rear it moves significantly. Also, I wish I would have done the front first, it is higher then what I was thinking so I need to add an inch or two to the rear to have it level.
Correct, If i were to mount the coils on the inside of the frame the links would have had to be about 10' shorter and it may have limited my up travel with the link hitting the frame. With where it all is now I have 4 degrees oversteer. It would have been nice to have less but this is what all the compromises came to.
Each day I'm getting closer, I will keep updating as I go along.

So, I have almost finished the rear. All that is left to do is flex it out and measure for bump stops and limit straps. The only problem is my small garage has no room to do this. I should be getting my high steer arms today and be able to put the front together tonight or tomorrow. Then I will be able to roll it outside. I will update with pic's of the flex.
This is my final specifications for the rear:

So its been a while since my last post, but a lot has been done.
Everything went together with a few long nights and one skipped day of work.:whoops: I was able to make it to meet my friends in Moab last week for our annual trip. I have some bugs that need to be figured out but for my first suspension swap I'm pretty happy with it. Here are a few pic's.
Thank you everyone for all your fantastic help!!! Could not have done it with out you all.
Long live ih8mud!
