Hey guys, this question most likely has been worn out but can't find anything in past posts so here I be. My question is where to find new weld on mounts: spring perch, shocks, and swaybar. Going from my stock 7.5 on a 98 to 8.8 from a Explore with discs. Can anyone point in the right direction?

Thanks
 
THANKS MAN!!!! That just what I was looking for! There's so many people doing this swap but nobodies dropping info on where their getting those brackets. :icon_thumby:
 
Yea its a nice handy little kit and the pricing is very right!
 
i got these shock tabs, they have a 3.25" radius on them for the EX axle tube

these perches (which fit perfect on an EX 8.8 and are the perfect width for EX leaf springs) $23.xx

found 3.25" radius u-bolts at autozone for $20 and i'm reusing the EX spring plates

less than $50 for everything and it'll do the same thing as the ruff stuff kit. just throwing that out there. i had other stuff to spend $120 on.
