Anybody with a flip kit?!?

I was looking at the shear simplicity of most of these DJM and such flip kits for 73-87 trucks and figured I could just make my own for less than buying on eBay.

There is a bending place 10 minutes from me that could probably knock out most of the "complex" (if you would call it that) bend for uber cheap. What I need to know is what is the spec and measurements on all of it?

I attempted this before with some flat stock and used a digital caliper to measure the with inside of the spring perch, but I like the more involved kits out there that are boxed (as much boxed as you can I guess)

Also figure I can make some shock extenders super cheap, just need the specs on those too.

U-bolts seam to be readily available at just about any parts house.

Could anyone help me out with some good pics and measurements? Width/thickness/and the like? Also need to know exactly where the axle locating whole is on the axle cradle bracket. I'm a cheap mofo, and fabrication is just time and I have too much.

thanks guys, I appreciate any help.
