I've been replacing outlets in the house all day and hurrying to get outside. Damn builder grade 14 year old outlets will hardley hold a cord in them. Side note, my Father called while I was doing one, so I'm talking and working and almost grabbed one before I flipped the circuit off. Luckily I paused and doubled check with the multi-meter.

You did get my attention though. It worked...

The dually in the pics has a 2.5" spacer leveling kit. It's an 07 so it can be done the easy way. Back springs have "settled in" a little so i am putting a 3" block in the back to level it out, and then add RideRites in the shop so it doesnt sag. The truck looks good. Im contemplating putting my stock springs back in, with a DR mini leaf pack. Maybe keep my leveling springs (one is phagged badly) and somehow shim it up, so i can get about 1-2" higher now, then add 5" blocks in the back.

I like the idea of the DR or deaver add pack, I think I would also like to be a little stiffer too. Decisions, decisions...

RON! By chance were you travelling the Washington DC/495 beltway this afternoon at 1:45? On my way home I passed a truck that looked EXACTLY like yours and was just wondering.

I put them on yesterday. I like em. I'm trying to figure out how to make them "no skid". Some options are Line-x or Rhino. My bed has the Line-x. Or maybe even the NAPA spray on liner that I used on the inside of my front bumper to prevent salt rust. I've heard they can be very slick when wet.
