    Tired hit inner fender on bumps! HELP!!!

    C-notch ?

    No, I have 4" leafs and 2" shackle and no "C" notch. I only hit frame when I have a motor or something very heavy in the bed.

    Lowering Rear - any advantage in using 2002-2006 rear leaf springs?

    yea, i noticed that all the trucks in those years had the 3 leaf pack vs the old 5 leaf pack. but they were still rated at the same load. I was thinking that the arc may be the difference.

    Lowering Rear - any advantage in using 2002-2006 rear leaf springs?

    So I tried using a set of Bell Tech 4" dropped leaf springs but its not getting as low as I want. I even have 2" hangers and its still about 1" too high. Decided to scrap the Bell Tech's and go with a flip kit. Problem is when I installed the Bell Tech's I tossed my stock leaf springs so now...

    6” drop in rear without a flip kit?

    I don't have a flip kit. I am running Bell Tech 4" dropped springs which keeps the axle below the leafs. I also have 2" dropped front spring perch. The rear was not level with the front, so i removed the rear "stock" shackles and re-installed the two inch dropped ones, set on the 1" mark. I...

    Rear disc.......again Little Shop manufaturing kit questions

    no, it was air in the system. I still have not switched the lines at the master. Kind of "it works, leave it alone. After I removed the ABS, I was able to use 88-94 front brake lines, the "two into one" kind. I was able to bend the line into the prop-valve w/ out having to cut/re-flare the...

    TB spacer, upper intake spacer?

    so this may be a stupid question, but if it does not help, or only helps at WOT/3000rpm + then why did they make it one inch? in other words, would 1.5 or 2" have been better. Can you add too much volume that it starts to hurt performance? Anyone ever add two of these for a 2" spacer? TIA

    ABS removal/proportioning valve

    Did this also. used Junkyard parts. Went with a 06 burban valve, it has two in, two out for disc/disc setup. Then swapped to 88-94 front brake lines, they are two into one w/ a "T". So that makes two lines coming out of the MC into the prop valve, then out to the front/rear lines. Only had...
