My grades are never as good as they should be. 2.0 and go right?

I really like how the truck is coming along, makes me wish I had another truck.

well at least your shocks will be a bit cheaper than mine. 1325 for the shocks that are suppose to go with my rear leafs! Yike! but thats the price you pay to be competitive lol

your truck is pretty sick. can you take a pic of just the truck from afar.. want to see how level it is now with the new springs.. also your drive shaft looks like its at an extreme angle.. how necessary was it to move the springs forward and flip the rear hanger????

thanks man..ill snap a pic tomorrow of it sitting...moving the springs forward made it so i didn't have to drill new holes for the center pin. and fliping the shackle gave me alot more spring movement..i put shims under the leafs so the pinion angle isnt very bad anymore.

Makes me want to get the Durango leaves under my truck. I've got to get the new 8.8 built first then the whole rear will get changed up.

i will be watching for that. i want to know how those durango leaves work, i happen to have a rolled one out back. and are looking into the longer spring shackel set up al ready. iam buildind my shackels useing those 1 ton shackels as a base
