That would makes sense, i hit hard on the driver side and the truck does not have bump stops as of now. Bumps are definitely on the list as the spindle bolt has almost put a hole in the inner fender (that also needs to be cut out) because 37s…. Ive got some work to do this off season😂

I didnt post any pictures of the shock mounts, originally i just had just a basic shock tabs for 1 3/4 tube but once i figured out where the shock needs to sit it was to...

Links would definitely handle better but a well setup leaf sprung truck is a party🤠 It will be linked one day.

JULY - CURRENT little update on the truck, this is how it is sitting as of now most of the tubes are just tacked in. the shock setup is exactly where I want it, it is at 87* at full droop and 79* at bump with 19" of travel metal to metal. still need to do the upper shock mounts on the driver...
