Installing Tuff-Country
Ok,
I just received my rear 2" add-a-leaf from Tuff Country (www.samsoffroad.com) . For those that don't know I am trying to counteract the effects of the X spring upfront. SQUATTING!
I have the springs and centering pins in the box.
Can someone describe the install a bit? No instructions with it.
Where in the stack do I put this spring?
I noticed the holes in the springs are offset from center quite a bit. I am guessing the long end (not the physically long end) of the leaf towards the bumper of the truck?
There seems to be a retaining clip of some sort on the existing spring pack. Do I re-use this?
Yeti gave me torgue settings already so I am all set there. I will also get new u-bolts from the dealer.
thanks
Tom
