leaf spring tsb

weez187 · 11-28-2007, 04:11 PM

didnt have time search for the threads bout this tsb so i just made my own. just had my trunk in the dealer trying to get the leaf spring tsb performed on it. well they gave me no bull shit and performed all the work, had all the parts in the warehouse and only had to leave my truck there for a day.
my brother and have the same trucks. but he has not yet had this update performed. put his truck next to mine and checked the ride height. from center cap of rim to the fender mine had 23" his only had 22". and update did not compromise the ride at all.
one free inch for free. i know its not much but ill take it.

u'll notice that it is a lil bit stiffer in the rear. and yes, the new springs lift the rear up about 1-1 1/4". there are more topics on this in the 2nd gen section of the forum.

I have mine scheduled for this Friday. I went in last week and dropped the TSP on the desk and said I'm having problems with ride with a load in the back. No problem, when can you come in was the reply. I can't pass up the free spings, shocks and alignment.

True....I'm the type of guy who won't walk past a penny on the ground without stopping to pick it up. I had no complaints, just getting something free is like an early Christmas.

just made my first big haul with the new leaf springs, 1290lbs and the truck never bottomed out once.
