    Eye bolt shackle help.

    Thank for the help. So loosen hanger until bolt goes in then I can take all jacks off including jacks on frame and the hanger will go back original place? The u bolts are kinda loose just enough to put the nub inside the hole to line up axle and spring to set it in place.

    Question on leaf springs

    I went to rough country.com and typed in the part number 8100 or 8100 kit. They are the 8100 series the 2 in rear leaf springs. Although the price is crazy. It says 469$ I only paid 260 for the pair.

    Question on leaf springs

    I only got the rear leafs because I didn't want to have mess with the eye bushings, lazy I guess. I remember them being kinda wore out . I hear there a pain. If all else fails I'll put back the originals back in with a block . The front springs for a hundred is a steal. As for the 61"...

    Question on leaf springs

    Yeah I hear that they ride kinda rough. But I thought it'd ride better with leafs in the back compared to a block with old leafs. Not sure if leaf springs go bad besides the bushings. Maybe some flex. I should of went with the ez ride but it was a few more hundred. The frame isn't rusty in the...

    Windshield pinch weld / frame

    I wired wheeled it. Did the por 15 kit. Degreaser, prep then the por paint. But did a poor job of " the light coat " . Kinda thick. Only put one coat on it got dark on me and the weather went down. Fighting the sun. I'll add another coat tomorrow. Throwing a Tarp and weld blanket over it tonight.

    Windshield pinch weld / frame

    Yeah I like that idea of more drain holes. I'll probably add two more in the middle like u mentioned. I think the place said there going to use urethane. I've seen people say yes and no on that. Don't wanna block the drains.
