I see plenty of befores but no afters. I need to replace my front spring bushings but I would rather get a spring level in the front and get rid of the sqeak.

New front leaf springs. Install was a PITA. Got everything put on then couldn't get the track bar to line up in the bracket, ended up having to take it to my cousin who works at Monroe so we could get it up on the lift and do some prying, finally got it though. Ford put some heavy duty lick tite on everything, plus like 5+ yrs of rust didn't help either.

I hope not, I made a good spelling mistake and now I am part of a sig quote. Adam, the truck looks good, and almost looks like it has a full lift kit on it.
