Yes, your diffs should be able to cope. But one thing to consider is you may need to get a another air locker for the front cos the the chromo axles have 26 splines (same as rear axles). I'm not sure how many splines standard front axles have (can ...

The thing that sets the lovells apart from the rest of leaf springs on the market is that the leaf goes over the top of the bottom shackle bolt instead of underneath.

Sorry Steve I don't have any photos of the rear shackle angle. The rear shackles don't sit on an angle at all... They're pretty much vertical... The ride with the lovells and koni's is much better than the stock setup.
