NOOOOO
I wanna know how to convert a LEAF SPRING REAREND to a COIL SPRING REAREND >>>>>>>>convertttttt<<<<<<< oh and hey texanidiot where ya been aint seen ya in awhile |
Re: "Rice Rocket'
just guessin but take off the trailing arms make a leaf spring bracket with the hole in it to weld to each side of the axle for the springs to fit in and buy some hangers from a 4x4 site or something weld em to the frame and put your leaf springs in and your u bolts and your shocks you should be good to go
|
Re: "Rice Rocket'

Hope these arent cracked..they only have 1 lugnut per wheel. I didnt see any cracks from the front view but didnt look too hard.
Put my old headlight covers back on and polished em up! I just hope I can see still...may upgrade the headlights sometime ?relays? Washed truck/under hood (never thought to wash that! purple power is great i used nearly a whole bottle) Need to get some tomorow. My booster was the delco booster, the one that didnt have in stock. Will it rust from the store cause I know MC does, should I paint it??:chevy: |
Re: "Rice Rocket'
The old slots will crack but you have to get pretty rough with them. I wouldn't worry about it.
Definitely paint the brake booster. Where did you get that metal polish and how good is it? |

Re: "Rice Rocket'
