    Went to autozone looking for some 7" or longer u-bolts. No luck unfortunately. Hopefully I'll find something at Desert Rat tomorrow so I can get these babies on! :D

    Is that a 2nd Gen seat? It looks a little high for our cab any head room promlems? I've been looking into the 02 4runner seats.

    Yeah the top leaf on my Expos were over arched and rested on the bolt for the spring clip. Every time I hit a bump they would flex down and make a clanking sound as they hit the metal bolt. It got old really fast so I called AllPro and they replaced the packs with new ones they don't clank every time I hit a bump.

    I think we'll be good - I will find a dry spot for camp.

    So long as you don't dish it back to me for spending 3 hours at a time cleaning and 'de-squeaking' my leaf springs ;)

    I bought a 6' stick of steel pipe from Home Depot and cut it in different lengths for different jobs. They work well just bring your ratchet with you to make sure it fits over it.
