After about 4 months of collecting parts and shit i finnally finished the swap. With major help from mark (welndmn). Got a D44 with and arb and about 8 inches of lift. In the rear i used 6 inch lift springs and some rockers from BC bronco. Rockers were made for an EB but i fabed up the springs to accept them. Also hey were pretty sloppy on the road so we welded up a U shape wedge to put in them while on the road. Also for the front Mark made a wristed rad arm. Cant wait to get out and test it all!!!
Here is a pic.

Do you plan on running a rear track bar? Somewhere out there, there are pics of a EB with those spring rocker things under a side load, the whole rear end shifted over several inches! this may not be a huge deal but could definatly have some negative effects on tire clearance and other things, and the problem would only be worse on your heavy rig. Also if you had a track bar you probably wouldnt have to lock the rockers up on the street.

Thanks guys
As far as the rockers they are doing awesome so far. I do have a parts mike rear track bar, but i have yet to decide if i need it or not. Looks good so far but time will tell. Also i did handle like crap before i put the anti rocker blocks in that we built. Since then it has driven a lot better, and they come out it like 2 seconds so they dont bother me too much.
