I'm hopefully finally going get some time here in the next couple weeks to put some 2.5 inch Dobinsons springs on my 40 purchased from @cruiseroutfit . I figured that the military wrap end of the spring went on the shackles. Is that not correct?

One the OME Springs they put an arrow that points at the fixed mount for the springs, makes it very easy. (Shown in the photo on post 169 above: Seeking Advice for Suspension Upgrade - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/seeking-advice-for-suspension-upgrade.1345826/post-15642020) I would defer to @firemanj92 and others for specifics on the Dobinsons.

Wrapping up after driving her for a bit. The alignment has a toe in of 3/16". It tracks well and drives great. Caster measured at both the flat ribs on the diff and on the flat edge of the lower bearing cap is a smidge over 1*.

Now, if I can get her up to highway speed, I'll be able to tell how stable she is at speed.
