    looking for new rear springs

    Ya good point. You have to measure from the top of axle tube to the frame. Obviously front and back will be different at the same ride height. All things equal, No sagged body mount bushings and no flexed or bent frame and properly lined up body panels. The front wheel well to the ground should...

    dash pad

    Its my understanding that all the repro dash pads are made by the exact same children in China and the quality just depends on whether yours was built on a day when they fed the children or not ???

    looking for new rear springs

    Anything over 2 1/2" in the front needs to have a steering geometry correction of some sort.

    looking for new rear springs

    Looks like you could use a couple of inches in the back anyway. Why don't you throw a couple of add a leafs under the back? Usually the back springs are at least a 4" lift to get after market springs. That thing looks like it needs a bit of a lift anyways. How about 2 1/2" springs in the...

    fair price? any thing i should worry about

    You definitely need the raised Steering Arm! The Rough Country will ride nicer too and it comes with the arm. 73-76 is the same as 76-87 as long as the springs come with the poly bushings your all set to go. FYI change the front frame shackle bushings while your at it...

    GMC HIGH SIERRA AND SIERRA CLASSIC whats the difference?

    One was High and the other was a Classic.... duuhh !!! LOL I dunno LOL I have often wondered the same thing. Each trim usually allowed for different options at the dealership. While each trim package would make certain options mandatory for each level of trim. But honestly how many options...

    Break line in the way

    Sounds like the hard line is bent out of shape or the banjo was bolt was tightened with the line being in the wrong spot. Sounds like maybe all you need to do is loosen the banjo bolt that holds the flex line to the caliper and then rotate the line out of the way. You would need to bleed the...

    Ford NP208 Interchange / 27 Spline Output Shaft Th400

    dash pad

    I wouldn't waste your $ on the cheap repro's on the market. The plastic cover seems to look better then the repro's if installed right! Or just redo it your self. That's what Im gonna do. Actually Im gonna remove all the old foam and vinyl from my dash and paint it up until I get around to it...

    dash pad

    A good trick to keep rubber seals in good shape is to massage Sil-Glyde brake lube into the rubber. The stuff wont wash off and it keeps the moisture in the rubber. After you have it all lubed up then wash the excess off so that you don't have brake grease all over the place. It works on every...

    Good to know! :) At least if it blows out it will afford you the opportunity to do a power steering fluid flush lol

    from one shade tree mechanic to another

    I would rather spend money on gloves rather then Hand cleaner. But if I do need to clean up my greasy hands I just use Lemon Dish soap. Works great every time!

    remove leaves on 4" lift to make 2" lift with better ride?

    Even if the bottom one broke right on either side of the axle, your spring would still hold the truck up because the U bolts clamp all 3 or 4 or 5 leaves together to act as one. That being said its the springs binding on each other with the friction of being stuck together that creates a...

    Heck you can make your own for just the cost of a piece of 1" stock

    Need your opinion!

    A 1" Body Lift is the only height that will allow you to simply put in the 1" shims and drive away after adjusting the transmission shift linkage and freeing up the steering shaft to accommodate the extra 1" Im actually considering this in addition to my 4" suspension lift to get me back to...
