Good news/ bad news
the bad news....top plate is bolted to the shin stack
the good news....I didn’t need to remember ve the top plate just lift the leaf springs, insert 3” spacer, then install bottom plate for traction bar eyelets
left side if done
right side after lunch
bars will be next weekend

got both spacers and traction bar eyelet plates installed
i like these lift blocks becuse they have flanges for the bump stops
this was a nine hour affair just to get this far.
had most of the tools except for a 1 1/16 socket for the old u bolt nuts.
next Saturday will be the drilling for the side chasis mounts for the front bar eyelets
also going to check my axle alignment
