    Nice, still haven't seen your truck in action. Find a shop yet to cage?

    I'm sure you would.

    Yeah, lots of trucks on here that don't make it out that often.

    My F67's must be flat as I'm using all of my 3" bump. Only about 4" of up travel before I hit the bump.

    True, I'm set up a little more stinkbug than most of you guys (50T springs). Plus 3.0" shocks means a lot of oil to push around for as light as my truck is.

    Yeah the F-67's sag some. Especially if you have a little extra weight in your truck. I switched over to the Deaver E-30 pack and it works way better

    Can they upgrade a F67 to a E30 or have to buy whole new packs?

    I dont have a picture of the bump but here is my stance loaded for Baja. If it were level it would drive better. On the way home from this trip we were loaded with concrete statues and benches from San Felipe and it was on the bump stops. That was a fun 14 hour drive home.

    Yeah Sam, You have to buy a whole new leaf pack. The main leafs are the same size, but each individual leaf has a different bend in it making the stance different. So it probably wont work

    I'd call deaver. I know a couple dudes who have had their leaf packs re-arched and tuned at the shop.

    When the time comes i will, but mine ride very nice right now and l don't have a bed to cause overload.
    Maybe will add a c notch to gain a few inches up travel with these springs.
