Just move your files, and change the URL set in the Admin CP. Also remember to update your details in the vBulletin Members' Area.

Warning:
Specific cookie domains (Cookie Domain) and cookie paths (Path to Save Cookies) may cause problems if you are moving servers and changing the URL to your forums.

If you are unsure whether your cookie settings will cause problems after the move, we recommend resetting your cookie path to / and removing any cookie domain value before the move. An incorrectly set cookie domain or path will likely prevent you from accessing your control panel.

Not sure whether it applies to you, since you're only moving directories.

Cookie domain will not matter, but the cookie path might. Just make sure it is set to "/".
