    So my friend that was helping me and letting me use his garage couldn't sleep. He just called me saying he got the leafs flipped around and everything bolted back on. All that's left to do tomorrow is re-connect the driveshaft and u-joint, install the shocks, and bleed the new brake line! :goingcrazy:

    Haha nah he went to bed.
    Is came apart when we pulled the axle back to try to bolt it to the leafs when they were backwards. I marked it with a sharpie just in case it happened though because people warned me that it might fall out.

    You're telling me! I owe him when it comes time to put on his suspension! Haha
    No... Haha
    I haven't dicsonnnecting anything but one tab so far, and it wasn't for the brake line. But I'm going to put on an extended line before I flex anything. I'm not 100% sure if you'll need one, but it couldn't hurt.
    I've been checking every time we raise the truck away from the axle, and the brake line has been fine so far :notsure:
    :facepalm:

    No, what this guy said. VVVVVVVVV It's just a greased slip joint that slides apart. I marked it with a sharpie beforehand so I can line it back up.

    When I was cutting one of the u-bolts down somehow a shard of metal flew around the safety glasses and just barely hit the edge of my eyelid, luckily I was able to get it out before it got in my eye... Haha

    Didn't see it in the picture until after i posted.

    I was hoping the shaft end that goes in the transmission wasn't what popped out...sometimes some fluid follows when that part pops out.

    Bummer on the leaf install Brent! I stopped in here to ask if you've got your relay box wired up yet? I've been looking at putting one of them in. What config did you get? AB or C?
