Does anyone know of someone besides sky manufacturing that sell a full width(31" spring spacing) sas spring hanger? I am not crazy about the design of sky's bracket or the price but if that the only one available I will use it. I have tools and know how to do it myself but metal has gotten so high I wouldnt be saving much doing it myself.

I wasen't able to find any one else who made them other than Sky's Manufacturing. I my self was not to keen on the logo cut into there front hanger but I purchased the kit any way. They said they could make it with out it but I would have to wait a few weeks to get it.
Any way it is a really nice kit, the front hanger is very well constructed and has a couple of cool features. The spring hangers will except either toyota or chevy springs with some washers making up the diffrence in width. There is also foward ajustment in it! you can install it in the stock location, 3/4" foward or 1" foward to help in approach angle of to keep the tires from contacting the foward side of the cab.

here is my build that may explain stuff a little better for ya.

Thats what I will probably end up getting. I ordered the springs yesterday maybe I can have atleast the front done before the end of the month.

The kit makes the swap really easy to do, the longest part of the whole thing was cutting all the freaking brackets off. Helps if you have a tourch or a plasma, I had the trusty old 4" grinder and plenty of cutting wheels.
Keep this in mind! The templates that are used to locate the hole for the rear shackle are not quit that accurate. Make plenty of measurments before commiting a hole. There are added stiffners inside the frame too, so if your using as hole saw you'll need acess to both sides of each frame rail to make the cut all the way through.
I did mine by my self and was able to cut and clean everything one weekend. The next weekend I had it sitting on it's front tires again.

O by the way ask Sky's about there GM master cylinder to toyota brake booster adapter, It's $35. It's not listed on ther web site but your going to need to make the swap if you want the brakes to work the right way again.
