    forgot to mention that I also had to flip the front spring perches to work with the axle. (Stock mounts are offset to the inside of the frame, so I flipped to offset to the outside.) Not sure if you will need to do this or not. Just something to keep in mind when you are looking at the location of the spring perches on the axle in relation to leaf springs. You would also swap the rear mounts too...

    if the perches don't line up with the springs, then you cut the perches off the axle and move them. You don't need to relocate the springs.
