If you go cross over, make sure to put a panhard or track bar on the front axle.

Ya I'd like to change front springs. I keep coming to the realization that if I buy new front springs, get some sort of perches and shackle mount money wise I'm close to buying a bunch of 4 link parts . Was thinking abt arms like this
