you west coast guys don't even know how badly i hate the lack of rust you guys get. i'm sure ed's trucks have a lot of bodyman hours in them, but trucks as nice as his only stay that nice for a few years in central and eastern america, even when you take great care of them. i <3 ed's trucks, all of them including his families trucks that he posts

So im happy because my stuff from Ballistic showed up but id also like to club a baby seal because of the way my shackle flip is goin. Crew WB is supposed to be 166.5". With the shackle flip it went to 164". So i moved the front hangers 2.5" and now the shackles look like this. So what am i supposed to do now?
And heres my steering arms and whatnot that showed up.

Heart symbol? I thought he said "I less than three ed's trucks". 
The rust may not be as bad on the west coast, but i've seen some baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad rust, hell some of the stuff i've seen is ridiculous. I had a jeep awhile back that I cleaned up and painted.. it had UNSANDED bondo under the diamond plate haha. So naturally, I sanded up the bondo, duct taped and bondo the holes and passed it on to the next chump.
Oh and Cheeto, nice shackle angle.
Hmmmmmm.
Move the rear hangers 2.5"?
-or- Different springs.
-or- Deal with the WB being off.
-or- Leave the shackle angle and hope the leaf spring never compresses.
So whats the crew look as a whole right now anyways? I'm not sure what picture to look at to get an idea of what it looks like now. New pictures?
