    I still can't figure out why the leaf springs want to separate sideways. I'm going to change the shackle angle to a less Steep angle and see if that helps. The pinion shims I don't think it really helped.im hoping to put this all back by Wednesday ( here I go giving myself timelines again).:)

    Nice progress. Can you get some leaf different leaf springs with some arch? Those look really flat with those shackles?

    the problem is The truck will be too tall. I did not want to do what I'm doing now because i think it will add another 2" of height to the front. I'm short. this truck is too tall as it is with flat springs. But yes if I cant figure this out maybe another set of springs might be a good idea.
