Spring Perch/Pad

[montazch]

Hi everyone! Does anyone know where I can get some 3.25" leaf spring perch/pads?

I'm doing a '97 Explorer 8.8 with disc brakes axle swap and I need some new perches/pads to weld to the top of the axle.

The Explorer 8.8 is 3-1/4 inches in diameter and the Ranger uses a 2-1/2 inch wide spring pad. See why I have to upgrade...

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

ruffstuff.com, they have an 8.8 simple swap kit for the 8.8

comes with everything you'll need to swap it in.

i got some from 4 wheel parts for $22. they're the perfect size for an 8.8 tube.

What about shock mounts? What's good, what's not for this axle swap?

i used some tabs from ballistic fabrication. they're laser cut with a 3.25" radius on them made out of 1/4" plate.
