Good morning guys. Sorry I have been out of touch for a few days. But I'm back now.
Had some offsite training I had to do for work.

I have been a little under the weather with some mild fevers and aches. I feel a tad better today but still have the dry cough.

Despite me feeling bad I did get out this weekend a little. Finished my truck up on Saturday. Did a dana 60 swap with SD springs and a little lift.
Then Sunday I felt bad in the AM. Layed on the couch and sweated the fever out. Then got outside with the baby and family. Layed in the front yard on a blanket. Sooo nice.
I even got in some mowing. Just the deep spots where it grows fast. Don't want to over do it just yet. Still a little weak.

I hope all of you guys have a great day and thanks for stopping by. It truly is the thought that counts.

Get better.

I did the d60 in mine last fall but left the 250 springs in. Not good unless you like to ride pogo sticks and bouncing your head off the roof. I got the 350 springs but haven't taken the time to swap them.

Did you use the rsk kit for the superduty spring swap? Any picts?

Is your d60 a ball joint or king pin? Mine is a kp but I think I have lost some turning radius.

I used the SD 350 springs. I also used an RSK bracket to do it. Not sure who's it was I bought it used.
I took a few pics but haven't uploaded them yet.
Mine is from a '97 350. Ball joints.

My brother has a '97 350 CC. He told me that I would loose some turning radius but I haven't noticed it yet. I hope not, so I can prove him wrong. LOL.
His is a CC long bed. You can't turn that thing around in a football field.

Mine is a CC short box but feels like I need a football field. Sucks. If it wasn't for the sealed bearings on them, I would use that.
