Idaho BS thread in the PNW

sup peeps!

the rear is pretty easy. ive taken the whole rear end apart a few times on my other truck too so i actually had an idea what to do, unlike the front, where i was totally lost. if you have any questions i will be your adam, and you can call me. then i will feel special, and slightly useful lol.

Tim closed elite temporarily because he's moving the shop

 

really??? or you fuckin with me? i just met him at his brothers place in Vancouver on sunday...

 

I think you're talking about Jerry at BAMF...

Tim is in oregon and moving from kalamath falls to portland this summer.

 

as i remember


jack up truck (if you dont have tall jack stands might need a few 2x4s under the jacks to give you some more height)

break loose u bolts (we did one side at a time)

unbolt shocks

take off u bolts and ubolt plate thing

support and lower axle

clamp leafs

take out center pin (the thing was stuck and stubborn to we used vice grips on the round part of the bolt on the bottom of the pack and a wrench to break the nut on top)

release clamps.

place aal on top of overload

start clamping them back together and insert new center pin through the leafs tightening the center pin bolt.

once the leafs are all clamped and squeezed together and the center pin bolt tightened we removed the clamps and cut the top of the bolt off

raise axle and make sure the center pin/leafs pack is lined up with the hole on the leaf rest on the axle and put the ubolts and bump back over it with the ubolt plate thing and begin to tighten it all back down
