    So, i loaded up the new leafs.

    Yanked the wheel off and felt sorry for my springs.

    Popped the new ones in, started installing the flip kit and was suddenly ready to kill Allpro for sending me a flip kit that's not long enough for their own damn springs.

    Stuck the old hardware back on there, sadly.

    Old leafs vs new leafs.

    One side done.

    Also removed my sway bar. Here it what's left over.

    The ride home was GREAT! What a difference!

    thanks dave. i really like the white outline..... just dont know if i have the taping skills to pull that off.

    btw it looks like you are missing a lug nut on your passenger side rear wheel spacer.

    I'm pretty good at taping stuff off. That's my favorite one, too. I have no plans for the weekend if you want to give it a shot.


    That lug is missing because the thread is stripped (thanks to a wheel shop). Don't really need it anyway.

    Stupid friggin Kook custom long tube headers! Still working on them bitches. My brother owes me big time. We worked from 6-2 last night, 11- who knows today and I'm sure we will still be on it tomorrow morning. Of course, now that we have them in the right places, it should start coming back together, but you would never think that the only way to put one in would be from the top of the motor. Especially when the instructions say to bring it in from the bottom.

    If anyone buys long tube headers and asks for me to help them put them in, they may get punched in the nose!

    Ok, back to the calmer Brian. :D

    Matt, I have a spanner you could borrow.

    Dave, those leafs look nice!

    Justin, either the all white or the white outlined.

I will come get the spanner wrench from one of yall possibly brian since he is closer lol. it would be nice to borrow one. i could buy a univeral one from jegs for like 25 or 30 bucks but still dont know if it will work.

    as the due dates for the truck get closer I'm getting more anxious to have it back...but I'm praying that bill is able to do the rear axle as well.
