Front Leafs
So, I get my front leafs in today.. they are different then what is on in the first place.. so now, inastead of having to do one side, i have to do both..
Still hoping that either will work in the first place.. I figure I will do this when I get home, after picking up the kids.. THinking that my sister in law might be home.. well, now I am sitting here with my kid, and my sister in law is out doing her thing.. 
WTF!!!!!!!!!!Or, now I can pay 200.00 to have the guy do both sides..and it is right up there with the original quote..Yeah, I am f'n happy.. did I forget to mention that baby isnt happy right now, he is crying.. and he pooped himself....

Pat I'm sorry bro. If I was closer I'd give you a hand, after you change the diaper. I'd take Chases' advice but make a a couple of cold ones.
What is different about the springs?

that sucks.the 99's are tuff to get parts for....1/98 to 3/98 thay ran a set up then changed it and ran that 3/98 to 2/99..after 2/99 they stuck with that set up..still dont have the run down of what the diffs are..i know rotors,sway bars and spring bolts are all differnt..not sure what else yet..when ever you buy front end parts for the 99's..part ## is best..but the build date will be needed

Yeah I know how you feel. I got married, blah have a new boy now which is great and I am giving up two days in the middle of the work week to watch him. Working like a dog trying to get it all done, and somehow I am not helping and she is supporting me? I donno I i make three times what my wife does made every repair and upgrade in the house with no help and I am still the ****. No wonder I picked up the smokes again!
Daniel, this could be another thread, Crap, this could be another forum. We feel your pain.

Good Morning all.. This is what I have.. The springs will work!!! I can do 1 at a time ( although not really suggested) The spring I have on the truck goes over the bolt in the front, the second spring goes under the lug, this causes a gap between the two springs. I do not know why they would do this.. but it is done. Per the spring guy ( yes, I went and saw him, I have nothing to hold my truck high enough to change out the leafs, even after removing the front tires.) these will work, even 1 at a time..I am going to try and get my truck back over there today, and hopefully be able to pick her up at lunch.
Thanks Guys for a place to share.. The butt went well, but 2 more times before the end of the night.
