    Angle grinder saved me with taking my old springs out. I cut off all 4 u bolts and both main eye bolts haha. Driver side was tricky around the gas tank but it made for an easy removal.

    Yeah i've lucked out on rusty bolts so far. The PO had replaced all the suspension about two years before I bought the truck so nothing has had a chance to rust up on me yet.

    Did you change the rear brake line? For me that was the most seized of anything oddly enough.

    Any 05+ regular cab people on here wanna buy a set of weather tech window visors? I bought them for my access cab since they were the cheapest I found but unknown to me the regular cab doors are actually a different size so I can't use them

    Yeah I love the turn signals. Tonight my ex brother in law tried to put LED's under the running boards but the electrical got tricky. He figured it out but couldn't finish since it was getting late. I'll post pics tomorrow when done
