I will later after I get the pinion angle set so I can weld the spring perches to the axle tubes.

Morning boys. Rainy out there this am. Supposed to clear up this afternoon tho.
What are you bulkheading Gerry?
Put a hitch on the '01 yesterday, going to wrangle up the 7 pin wiring and brake controller today, then we have a set of 2000# capacity overload springs coming for it. Priced out air bags which I prefer, and have used in the past. They have increased around $160 in price since the last set I bought 2 years ago. The overload springs are $160 for the pair. We looked into buying a newer truck, but decided that with $1800 in this truck so far, we could put a little more into it and make it work for us.
Hope everyone is having a great week!!

Good morning all, rain through the night here and still coming down, so much for mowing the lawn today. It's going o be a tough go when I do get to do it, the grass is growing like mad.
