Im looking to see if anyone has done one of these shock kits I see online if so thoughts

If you used longer shackles you have answered your own question. That is your sway problem. You should use a dropped axle with stock shackles and a tube shock kit on front and rear. You can lower the rear by having a spring shop lower the arch of the spring. If you still have mechanical brakes the dropped axle will not work with them.

Yeah using mechanical brakes
Will look up those tube shock kits also
Thank u

Actually, you can run a dropped axle with mechanical brakes; I have done so on my 35. if you run, say, an Okie Joe dropped 36 axle, all you need to do is heat and bend the curved piece at the top of the perch bolt to reconfigure it to suit the brake actuating cross shaft. And bend the rubber anti rattle things located half way along the radius rods so the rods can pull straight.
Easy to lower the back of that car too....you can fit lowering blocks between the radius rods and rear axle housings. I made my own, but there is someone in the states that sells them.
