06 Silverado coilover conversion

[Cbaranski]

I own a 06 2wd Silverado with the fabtech 7" performance lift. I've upgraded my upper arm to a BTF upper, lower arm is stock. I want to convert to coilover. I've done the measurements and come up with needing a 8" coilover and a 700lbs 16" spring. I want to know if anyone else has done this and has pics of how it was all mounted. I have fab skills and a welder, just need something the go by for ideas.

This setup has aftermarket arms but is an idea for a simple, solid coilover hoop. A guy could improve upon it quite a bit too. Notice the hoop is mounted to plated frame so it distributes the load. Don't forget to reinforce everything (suspension pivot points, etc.)!
