    Good job on the build and tracking the progression. You remind me a of a few people I know who pay attention to whats out there and make some good choices on improvements that work without paying the premium while others pay for marginal improvements and then complain about how the company they bought their bolt on mod from ripped them off!

    Thanks Dave, I'm always looking at possible alternatives to going 3rd party aftermarket products & design, my turck is pretty unique as to how things are accomplished. I'm really pleased with how my "Junk yard "spring rebuilds are coming along, I'll match my Home built springs with any aftermarket springs going, not to mention the true 3" lift it provides...:D

    You 1st gen guys know what I'm saying about the stock muffler, its like hanging a 55 gallon drum under your truck, if any of you have never seen your stock muffler, check it out, ghastly, waaaaay tooooo fucking big & restrictive as hell, I threw this on last night & can already tell a difference...

    Hi Connor & thanks buddy ...

    The info on the OMD's is my NASCAR buddy (retired) has a grip of leaf springs,coils ,etc; I don't even know what these coils are off of but they match up pretty damned close to stock on the I.D./O.D. & slightly thicker & they are 17" long !!!, so I'm going to cut off 2" making them 15" like the Eibachs for a 3" lift in front, we'll see how it goes....:eek::eek:;):D

    Yeah, in my own mind !!!:eek::eek: :D:D Hey thanks Phil:).. I figured why stop with the "junk" springs when I can build some "junk" coilovers too !! So far this weekend I've built one set of leaf springs for a members 2nd gen, R&R'd an exhaust & started on my coilovers for a total out of pocket cost of about $6 (paint)
