    Its not a bad job per say. Just alot of crawling around on the ground and finagaling the floor jack. I fully expect to have to replace my cheapo leafs with 3 years so if Im still the owner I guess Ill begrudgingly have to do it. Only had them out 4 times already. :rolleyes:


    Still never solved the squeaks.

    What do you guys do to fix the fading paint and little rust spots on your trucks?

    Thanks for all the help with the LBJ’s I’ll be doing them soon!

    My answer will trigger some but I touch up the paint with the closest color Rust-Oleum paint I can find, especially for larger scrapes and rust spots.

    If it's a rock chip spray it in the cap and apply with a toothpick.

    with the fan on, the radio on, the tires, and the exhaust I can't hear any problems while driving :luvya:


    on the trail the fan and radio cover most of the bad noises too

    Or when you drive slowly beside a wall or in a tunnel...I've made peace with my squeaky leafs but that's about the only time I still think to myself 'goddamn that's annoying'

    Might be why my truck likes to be broken, but that’s fine
