Very easy I bought this truck for $300 it was a 87 TBI 350 with a puked out trannyhttp://publish.hometown.aol.com/ok17roper/images/872wd.jpg
The frames are virturally identical I had an old frame i took the mounts off of. http://publish.hometown.aol.com/ok17roper/images/frontr.jpg You can see where the coil springs mounted!!!
Here is the Morning afterhttp://publish.hometown.aol.com/ok17roper/images/lifted.jpg

sounds perrty cool. You could probably start doing that for a living if you can do one a day. Maybe even start doing SFA conversions and such. Just a thought.
