A 4" difference is quite a bit so it may be a lot triple measuring so I would better off putting it on paper first and make sure all the geometry works. There's enough parts around here that if it's a possibility to make it work I'd only be sacrificing a spare cross member. Depending on fender well clearance and available wheel offsets it might be a bit easier figuring out how to make it work. If its been done once it can be done again.
Its been raining off and on since 5 PM and its supposed to rain most of tomorrow, should be good for the new grass seed.

Good morning everyone, it`s a cool one that I`ll enjoy before it gets warm again.

Busy here too Shaun, where are your parents moving to?

Narrowed stock suspension with steering box, changing out the cross member and going with a rack and pinion. This is a custom engineered suspension with a narrowed track width..

They are moving their camper to a new campground. Place they are moving it to is at least 200 bucks cheaper per year, and they will be on a larger site then where they are right now. So I will be towing their camper for them. While my moms Durango is set up to tow their camper and I know my dads F150 can tow it I will move it for them since I know my truck will move it through some of the hills we will encounter.And my dads truck does not have a trailer brake controller in it yet.

He said he might buy them outright once he sees them if not maybe on consignment. He has a better chance at selling them than I do and it's also easier for him dealing with the paperwork...
