you could of cut the bolt head off on the driver side leaf and replace it with a new one from ford instead of dropping the gas tank. saves a couple of hours worth of work.

Looks good.

So the Eibach springs dont have the overload? Groundforce springs have it. hmmm...

Thanks!

Well, I could have put my stock OL leaf in, but we decided against it. I don't tow much, like twice since I've had the truck.

I like it! The pictures look good. Bring it by when you get a chance.

I saw the board in the picture, but it is an essential tool. No comments necessary!

yah the board actually helped to spread the jack out over more of the surface of the gas tank instead of just crushing a 6" hole into the tank

I think most of us that work on cars have a board or two for those instances when only a good strong board will get'r done.

I will soon. I have to show off! Besides, you haven't made fun of my wheels in a while.

I didnt know you needed to change your bump stops Jeremy. Come up whenever you got some free time. PM me....

Stealth if you got tinted you would be more stealthy inside the truck. Did you think my truck's tint seemed dark when you rode in it?
