As it stands now the driver side shackle is straight up and down, and the pass side actually points towards the diff. So, the springs are fully arc'd as they sit - can't go up any more.

So, as I see it my options are - 1. remove a few leafs, 2. remove a few leafs and spring over (I don't like spring over). 3. Throw 600 pounds of weight on it. 4. Create a 4,5 or "A" link suspension with 80 series 3" lift coils.

Any thoughts?

Remove a leaf or get some light duty 75 series springs.
Mine is the same since the alloy tray was installed.
Good time to test out the Tough Dog
My springs are fairly new and I will leave them until I know how much my camping body will affect it
