it can be done, but not with all coilovers. coilover in front with some careful planning, but not in the rear with out major frame changes. id plan to go coils and adjustable shocks on all 4 myself, as thats my plan once the cutting begins.

outside no way. not unless he is way offset in wheels or runnning toys and offset. its just to tight to be worth the effort. anything is possible, but i highly doubt it will be an easy task. better to go for coils and shocks in the rear.

however, if willing to mod the frame, it would be doable. figure the fore/aft mounting position of the coil over, then cut the necessary amount of frame out, like 5", and run a new piece of 2x4 1/8" or thicker behind it, effectively making a pocket for the shock to fit in.

DISCLAIMER- this is not an easy mod, there is an extreme level of safety being flirted with here, and welding should be done by a competent welder. other peoples lives are at stake!
