There is no way the truck will need a 400lb main rate, use the loaner springs to figure out your corner weights Mike, crank them down until your desired ride height is achieved, then measure the spring to see how much it compressed.

😘 Can't wait to se what you come up with.

Yeah what the heck do I know.

More logic. Brian doesn’t like logic

Right.......

The delusions of grandeur happing in this thread right now are next level. I love it!

Center mounting your truck isn't that much more work huh? How long were the upper arms on the old setup? Why not just build some frame rails back and build some slightly longer upper arms, and an upright, lower arm and swing steering to go with it? That way you can run your old cooling setup...

Yeah Brandon is who I got they idea from. before everyone had access to machined parts we use to hand tap the spindle and grind a bolt :)

If you don’t like the pin you ended up making for the upper arm into the top of the spindle, you can tap the top of the spindle and run a regular bolt. Then tighten the bolt down and mark where the pinch bolt is going with some spray paint, pull the bolt back out and notch the side of the bolt...

Your house and your trucks look great. What’s your excuse? ❤️

Love it
