    Sweet !

    So, when do you want to do this leaf spring swap? :spy: I think I've tracked down all the parts I'll need as far as OEM stuff. I guess the xmember is going to be a pain in the ass because we'll have to fab new diff bracket mounts. Does your Xmember have the brackets? Guess we could go off them if it does.

    You'll be able to say you helped installed a LT kit :)

    Once you get everything let me know and I'll make sure I don't have anything else in the shop...also I don't think your rear cross member had any mounts..they are up higher I believe...and yes mine has all the brackets

    Apparently Stan said the mounts we're fun to figure out, thats where I'm getting that from. We can check it out and plan it before we jump knee deep. You have a connection for buying steel? I heard 2" Square, 3/16" wall is what I needs.

    Do you know what length brake lines over stock you are running? Just got some for the front and rear that are 5" over stock and they seem so short:eek:

    Question for you... have you switched out your stock plugs and wires? I was told by the dealership that they should be done every 30k. If I'm going to change them i'd prefer to upgrade them for better performance but I cant really find much on TW in regards to upgraded options. thoughts?

    I changed my plugs at 30 and 60....engine idled much better each time. Also MPG elevated a bit as well. I would recommend doing it for sure!

    No wires on these trucks. There are coil packs but unless you have one acting up I wouldn't replace them cause they are pricey!

    That would make sense as to why I cant find any info on upgrade options to the wires.

    I really appreciate all of your help!! YotaMatt for hosting the convo :D
