    Well my rear springs were recalled and replaced twenty years ago. I noticed a little rust on the bottom of them and I have like an inch of sag. So for about $35 dollars each, Im swapping them 4C6D6658-10B1-4676-A813-B030F7CF66AD.jpg out.

    Sure, like I wouldn’t take pics? Be here Wednesday, I gotta go kiss the neighbor’s a$$ and use the lift. Should take twenty minutes.

    Springs didn’t come in yet they came from NC. So, I’m probably going to wait for my new trailor hitch that should be here Friday then knock them both out and do some luben.
