i was searching through some old threads,,and came across yours with the pics of your coil sprung zuki. i really like how you set yours up,,and am thinking about setting up mine the same way. i have to use a heavier front spring cause i have a 4.3 in my zuki. i work at a place that builds car and semi trailers,,,so the metal wont be no big deal. on the upper spring mount,,,,do you have any pics,,,,,i was going to weld a piece of 6x6 1/4in under the bumpstop bracket,,putting gussets in,,,,,and a piece of 5in. inner diameter pipe that was cut to 1in under it to mount my springs. any info would be appriciated

The only bugs I've discovered so far is I placed my shock too close to the springs. It looks like plenty of room at normal ride, but at full drop the axle swings back far enough the shock and springs meet.. :( I've got 'ripples' in the shock tubes now ;).
