yeah his is a 2wd. I would try it.

might have to upgrade the shocks tho to maintain ride and stability with the 1/2 ton spring... should make it ride like a town car :w2:

Dont really like the idea of the back spring shackle mount with only 2 bolts. I would have done longer shackles and left the mount where it was. looks good though. Hows the ride?:tu:
