Re: project...GOVERNMENT DISCHARGE

Wow that turned out awesome "frontline72" is there any pics of during the swap? How did the burban rear end line up? Aren't the leaf pads different from the truck rear ends? How about the universal did you end up using a conversion universal to go from 3/4 to 1/2 ton? Sorry lots of questions I'm getting ready to do mine.

Good looking truck. Was thinking about your truck the other day and wondering how the progress was going.
