You can, I imagine. The Flip Kit keeps everything inline however. It may take a bit of engineering to make it right on your own. I bought the Flip Kit Brackers by themselves (used DJM I think) then I just bought the lowering blocks and they came with the U Bolts. I did need to get the spring pads under the springs from the junk yard. They bolt on different. They are 73-87 style. I can't have more than $40 or $50 in the set up. I am not sure what you mean by keeping the spings next to the axle? I am happy to provide info if you can clarify.
