Rear Leave Spring Mount?

Does anyone know of a kit or technique to move the Leave springs inboard the rear subframe?

 

So, what are you trying to do, minitub the rear end, put bigger tires on, or??
Maybe someone else on this forum has more information, but here is a thread on what people have done to their Fords.
The attached picture is what the Mopar guys do to gain a few inches, and I think the shackle extenders are made by Detroit Speed & Engineering. Maybe they could be mod'd to fit the Maverick.
Also, I think Crites makes a kit, but I don't know about quality of fitment.

Thanks, that is what Im looking for. Yup Im gonna tub it, mostly for a few inches and better looking wheels. I think I can re enforce the crites kit.

 

Resto,

E-mail me and I'll send you a zipfile of pix of my spring setup. I made mine from scratch based on the Crite's kit. To get full advantage, the rails will need work too. I'm running a 325DR with plenty of room.

 

I used RAS pics to do my car and then made offset shackles like in the first pic posted by olerodder. I have a building in the projects section with pics
