Last weekend....Lemon, MILLHOUSE and I swapped out my front springs and extra load leaves in an hour on the Red truck.....So Lemon, Dressens Regular and I decided to see what we could do with a 4" Hell For Stout lift springs, shocks, shackles, and ubolts....


Here is a pic of the truck last fall...and one of the clock... just before we started...

Got a deal on the piece back in '98, and installed it thinking that it might work...but that was not the case....I have just not ever removed it....
