I did for my dually but I also ditched the leaf packs for a 4-bar w/rolling sleeved bags using the OE housing spring pad locations for the brackets everything attaches to. Both shocks are now mounted just behind the rear end.

it's not a bad idea for your flipped set-up (def better vs. the exaggerated angle the relocation brackets put the shocks at).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
