    Short side is front long is rear. As measured from the center bolt that holds the leaf pack together. Should be pretty obvious which side is the short end and which is the long just by eyeballing it.

    Per DOT regulations all commercial vehicles must have a properly rated ABC fire extinguisher. In other words it should at least try to put out all kinds of fires.

    If there is an arrow, it points forwards. The plus just means it’s slightly above spec height wise.

    Thought I'd ask you guys. Just replaced the fuel pump on my truck today because it would crank but won't start but still doesn't start I checked the EFI relay and the fuses in the cab there all good. Got any suggestions?

    Thanks for the help everybody I really appreciate it! I have 2 questions. How do I get this bushing out?IMG_20180223_165556568.jpg
    And do these bolts come out or off? They're to the rear of the lead spring where the shackle goesIMG_20180223_165804023.jpg

    The bolts are attached to that hanger. Just hammer them out from the inside and be careful to not damage the threads.

    My truck isn’t a commercial motor vehicle. CMVs start at 10,001 lbs.

    It was tongue in cheek anyway. I’m not taking the kitchen fire extinguisher. Rather the truck burn than the house.

    I can't seem to find it again. Can I swap out the side mirrors from a 2001 Tacoma to my 1999 Tacoma? Can I just drill a whole where the manual lever is?

    Oh yea but thepoint is make sure you have the right fire xtingusher in your vehicle.I carr a 2.5 lb. ABC in my Tacoma and wifes Forester. Just a FYI kinda thing. We have a 5lb. in kitchen and each garage has a 10 lb. I ive so far from a fire station and hydrant tha the insurance companies have me in a fire zone 9. Which means my house is a total loss buy the time they get here.:sadviolin:
