    650LB coils, and custom remote resi's for the rear. I thought about 700LB coils but think it would be too stiff, it would be trial and error. I don't want much preload on my coils, if I think they are too light I'll send them back and go with 700, I'm ok with preloading a little bit though.

    I bent a spindle about a year ago.'it didn't bother me till my tire started to wear down. So I finally decided to fix it. Never took off a hub bearing before and ended ups messing it up. Seeing that it was Friday and after thief shipping time. I had my truck sitting on 3 wheels for about 3 days! Worse 3 days ever!

    Lesson number one. Dont beat things such as bearings out with s hammer if you want to out it back on!!
    Anyways!! I went to get an alignment yesterday. My buddy grabbed the pass side wheel and told me to look. The wheel had some play in it!! Wtf!! I just got done with the other side! But noticed it wasn't the hub! It was 1 inch ball joint on the total chaos uca! So I'm going go tighten it down today to see if it has anymore play in it.
