    :rofl::rofl: back in like the spring. my cousin got some work trucks at a auction, i went with so i could drive their kia back. well we had to rive 4h to get them. about half way we stopped for gas and a bite to eat, well my cousin went to the bathroom and dropped the keys down the toilet not just dropped them he flushed them. some how the other 3 people that were with us(including my cousin) all locked their cell phones in the kia. we tried to call a lock smith, but the vin number was covered by the paper work for the trucks. so i had to get on my trust iphone and get the phone number for the dealer they got the car from, so that my cousins wife could get the vin number. than we had to call and wait on a guy in a van to come make a key. this all took like 2 hours. and yet we still had to get gas.

    only if these are strait with the leaf pack unlike the other guys who are "off" and currently killing people's bushings.

    X2... are these strait with the leaf packs (designed to be curved with the frame)?

    Prove it. My bushings are fine. No additional wear or tear over stock mounts.

    lol.... physics prove it just fine. Even the OP said it was 3* off. Why is this even a battle? Facts are facts.

    Next time you get an alignment get your camber 3* off and see what happens to your tire.... same things happening to your bushings....just slower.

    No the OP stated that the factory mount was 2* off. Get your facts straight. We already went over this.

    Why do you think manufacturer's use bushing? They know that part has to move and have movement therefore they put a wear part in there so it can be replaced as it wears out.

    Since the shackles flips are designed for those who intend to abuse and over use their suspension system outside of stock configurations accelerated wear should be expected by the user whether it be a shackle flip, leaf spring, or aftermarket coilover.

    Your argument is therefore mute. Move along.

    Ouch. Dropped the keys in the toilet. Hahaha I work on oil rigs and one day one of the guys arrived on location with a set of keys that clearly belonged to a woman (way too much pink on the keychains for a roughneck). He said the lady ahead of him at the gas station counter had been mean to the attendant, then left her keys on the counter. Those keys were tossed, with great ceremony, into the port-a-John on our wellsite. :D

    Hopefully.
    1/4" direct bolt on once rivets are cut and knocked out. No drilling. Will provide 7/16" grade 8 hardware.
    I didn't have an issue. The inside of the leaf is 1/4" outside frame rail.
    NOW! :D
