I haven't heard of anyone doing it.

Thinking about it though, I don't think it would work to well, the height of the van would put a lot of weight and force on the pan hard rod a duel one would need to be used with strengthened floor and rail sections as well as where the four bars bolt to.

how about softer springs and air bags ?
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

When I put my new disc brake diff in I was thinking maby takeing out 3 leaves & useing airbags Would make it a softer ride & be able to adjust the ride height so i will be able to get it into the shead without haveing to put a stack of building blocks in the back to get it low enough Cheers Reid
