Nice job Tofer! I can't believe how quickly you got both the front/rear swaped and then back on the road.
Do you have any axel wrap issues? Do you have pics of where you mounted your rear shocks & spring perches?

i ended using a rear axle out of a 92 pickup, i swapped a guy my coiled axle. so it was alost easier. i will take a bunch of pics tonight and get them posted..
another update: the wheel spacers had a issue and its a good thing that i didnt wheel it this weekend. it was clunking SO bad when i got home today i ended up sheering one of the studs and all of them were really loose. i think the problem was that the studs didnt get seated down all the way. (i had to leave to get to sleep before my buddy put the hubs/spacers in.

ok i found some time to get these posted... sorry for the delay.
attempt to flex it out.
TWINS!!!
heep carnage
how camping should be
even lamer attempt to flex out the rear... maxed out the hi-lift and still had the wheels on the ground. (my brother 48" hi-lift.. my 60 was too hard to reach)
how it sits now wiht 2" longer rear shackels
front drive shaft... 2" steel stock... its not breaking anytime soon
rear shock mount
new rear shackles.
and now i have the tauras fan mounted, and i'll finish the install tomorrow. and NAPA sold me the wrong wheel studs so i need to replace them tomorrow and get the wheel spacers fixed tomorrow too.

You may want to weld in a brace in the middle of those Autozone (or whatever parts store) extended shackles. They will twist and bend if given the right amount of force.
That being said, it looks great! Now, go drive around town and find a ramp of some sort, with a dual shackle setup, that rear end should flex like crazy!!
