V / B Mod Thanks!

Just wanted to say thanks for all the posts here on the EX forum about changing out the leaf springs. I got mine done this past week and it rides like a new vehicle. The shop swapped the overload springs from my old spring pack and I used the 3.5 inch ford F350 blocks. Truck corners much better and is now predictable! The only thing I am concerned about is being able to fit into Mike's car wash or parking garages. I guess I will have to measure the height now to make sure.

This was my last ditch effort to make this thing drive-able. If it didnt work I was putting her up for sale. Well... I'm keepin her now.

Thanks again.

Feels like a new vehicle altogether with a new set of ball joints and V/B mod. I really love mine again too!
