    The tension is building! Have we PM'd the missing links? Or is it too early for that. Just need one to make it official, right?

    i'm in no hurry myself - it's just good to know we still have a minimum of 15. I was afraid the pre-stages of buyers remorse were setting in and we would lose our discount.

    I want the remaining few to order so I will quit calling Dan and adding on to my order! Never contemplated needing OME coils - but your hesitation allowed me to order em up! Dammit - this is getting expensive (but so worth it).

    Have a good weekend folks!

    Yeah, not a big deal until the front Billies magically appear back in our universe...

    Speaking of which, I was going to do a little syuntiffik eckspearmint anyway. I am going to swap out the rear shocks with the new billies I ordered before I do the leafs, just to get an accurate idea of what affect they alone have on ride, without new leafs. I've noticed a lot of lateral instability with my truck's rear end, and I have the cap which raises COG and catches a lot of crosswind/semi buffeting. My theory is that the leaf springs will be a bigger factor to correct this aspect of ride quality.

    Of course, I have the luxury of no broken leafs or the hideous extreme reverse arc MTgirl has. I mean her truck, not her.

    Holy crap, are you sure you are going to make it 3 whole days!?!?!?! What if you get a new load of ants in your pants Saturday? Don't worry, we'll be here for you.

    Actually, there is a chance we already have 15...:spy:

    I did seriously contemplate jumping off my balcony if we didn't get 15, but I think Im good now. lol Now if I can't get shocks within a month, I may just have to jump as I will have no reason to go on:eek:

    :D

    I would appreciate it if you would not talk about my rear end in such an offensive manner. :p That said, I know its bad, really really bad. That's why I want my new springs ASAP!

    Passenger side is arching the other way now, though I haven't managed to flip the shackle yet. I think the overload is cracked on that side too.. I'm trying to take it easy on the poor truck, but if I wind up going to stokes this sunday... well, pray for her.
