Front spring question
This, i have an old piece of shaft that I got from the scrap barrel at work. Drilled it to fit some M12 bolts (that's what we had in 12.9 lol) I use that with a bolt on both sides. Get it tight, hold the head of one bolt an tighten the nut. It will usually pop them without a hammer. I think 2...- bluex

Front spring question

Which dually - 8.1 vs pre-DEF 6.6?
Just because that's what they are for an are much better at it. I used to be solidly in the "why does everyone need a big diesel truck" camp. Gas trucks do it just fine. I started towing heavier stuff an it started to make more sense. My gas truck does it sure but it struggles on hills (I'm on...- bluex
