Question Rear Heater Fuse and some others...

After being laid up for the last 10 days with shoulder surgery, I have a bunch of questions - I've had a lot of time on my hands...

1) Where is the fuse for the rear heater blower? I can feel that it's warm, but can't get the blower to work - no light on the switch either.

2) Why would I want to mount the leaf springs on top of the axle versus the stock location of under it? I imagine I would get a lift of around 2 inches or so - but is that all? Better handling or more suspension throw?

3) I want to replace all 4 shocks - I have a 3" lift on the truck now - do I need to consider the measurement of the throw at all? Is there a standard?

4) At speed, if I hit the breaks fairly hard - holy sh!t - better hang on! This thing is all over the road. What's wrong? Sure...the breaks - but anything else? If I have the front end on a jack, I can actually move the front passenger tire back and forth...worn bushing?

Again, I have had lots of time on my hands...thanks!

Oh yeah - one more - If I wanted to change the clutch - that is tranny related, not moror...correct? Likewise, the rear main is motor related and not tranny... Reason that I ask is due to the 350 swap....
