As some of you know i am building a 77 f-150 for wheeling duties. I cant afford to beat on my DD bronco. But anyways, im still trying to get that other bronco (see "Special edition Bronco" thread) for the lift kit and other misc parts. While i work the details out with that im doing the shackle flip in the back on my f150. After taking the whole rear end out I found this nice present: (cracked leaf)
The whole leaf will come right out if i try. What can/should i do about it? I have these from my f-250:
Should i take apart the whole pack and put it back together with those other leafs? (or is it leaves, lol) Or should i get newer bronco/f-150 springs. or both? I want to get about 6 inches of total lift.
These were in the mix too: Should i get rid of them?
The passenger side shackle came loose when i loosened the bolt but the drivers side is being a PITA. Id put the torch on it and heat up that rubber bushing but the gas tank filler is right behind it. Dont mind the u bolt i stuck it there.
And lastly: LOOK MA NO LEGS!
