Thanks Chip, We are doing good. Pat had her right knee replaced a couple of months ago and is doing great.

No, it wouldn't be a direct swap because the frames are different. The C&C frames are straight in the back and the C20 frames have a kickout. I may end up having to narrow the front hangers a little too but I am going to try it this way first. I even thought about going to 1 ton coils & trailing arms on it. I have some off of an ambulance.
