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.

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...
