    How close is the tire to rubbing the shock at full compression and what size spacers do you have?

    I'll look next time i'm out but I still had room... Without the 1.25"' spacers, i'd be rubbing for sure tho... It'd be drivable but I wouldn't take it off the pavement..

    Thanks! :D

    You would display the flag on your truck similarly to a military uniform. On the right side, the union faces forward. On the left side, the union also faces forward. The idea being the flag looks as if it's being carried on a staff.

    Always advancing, never retreating.

    If I put on window decals and can't get one "reversed", then I will only put them on the rear or left side.

    hahahaaha



    FFFFFF UUUUU ALLLL POOOOOOO thats all :D


    lol but seriously how do you break both fucking springs.... like fuck, who has that bad of luck



    I was stuck fully stuffed in snow, was getting winched to the right and heard TWANG thank god I wasnt on the gas yet or the axle would have walked out from under me




    I should add my shackles are installed backwards and must have caused extra stress at the point of break with metal to metal contact, but sooooo much for hardened steal

    Looooooool that shit sucks! How does that even happen? Too much shifting pressure on your axle which put too much load on the springs or something?

    Are you still stuck out there? I see all the straps and shit, were you able to strap it enough to slowly limp out of there at least? I've honestly never seen a leaf spring break like that haha.

    I replaced the nameplate on my toolbox Friday. I lost my dog almost a year ago (he was my 1.A, my wife is 1.B) and wanted to pay tribute. Had it made at plaquemakers.com.
