yeah, I was supposed to go with him again, but I decided the $500 I'd take down there would be better spent on my truck. If I can find someone to start the bodywork I'd be ready to paint and put it back together. He's talking about putting another $5k into that truck, retarded. That truck has the power/height/tires for big mud and all it does is see parking lots.

On the round vs flattened top, I believe OE's were forged flat. Current replacements are round top. Either seems to work fine.

Since you are shopping, its a great time to do a "u bolt flip" on the front axle, since its a F250.
