I see nothing I hear nothing
1990 C1500 5.7, auto shifter, standard cab short box
The truck has been lowered by the P.O. (previous owner) Spindles in the front and a spring relocating kit/shackles in the rear. The PO used what looks like quality parts but if it were me i would have replaced the bushing in the process. That's just me, but....
I can feel something give when i accelerate from a stop. Not every time but maybe 25% of the time. I'm guessing it depends on how heavy my foot is for the most part. Still something isn't quite right. I didn't see any shiny metal or signs of movement next to the new spring brackets so assume it's the bushings.
Do the springs need to be removed from the axle? Will an air hammer punch out the bushing? Any tips or tricks would be appreciated. Never had to do spring bushings before.
Thanks!
