Well they can have my share I don't touch it.

How's the truck running? MT latest update is a 91 dana 60. I got the 250 springs still in it but like everyone says it is too stiff. I am going to try the f350 460 springs that came with the set up. If too soft I will see about adding a spring or maybe get a stiffer leaf to replace the stock one. My biggest problem is finding a 350 yoke for my 4407 t case.

Well I got a nice leveling kit for my KR that needs installed. It will give it a nicer 2.5" or so lift and look great. I just need to employ someone to assist as using blocks with a floor jack isnt the safest thing in the world haha.

What? You don't own a pair of jack stands? Time to make a run to the tool store. I do use blocks under the jack stands for more height though.

Oh my confusion. I have used blocks to to raise the jack also used the blocks on the jacks lifting pad
neither way give a warm fuzzy feeling but gets the job done.

cc, doin any good in the woods?

Scott, a block will do just be careful. Like you said use plenty of stands.
Or feel free to come by my place we can get a few people together and get it done. May not be such a short drive for you though.

Oh and the coffee, I only drink the online kind. The real stuff makes my hair stand on end. LOL
BTW. gimme a refill will ya Scott?
