Leveled the all original 60 short bed today

Installed some 1.5” rear lowering blocks and it sits perfectly now. The truck still rides amazing.

The old u bolts were seized on, so that was a pain in the ass, but it was all worth it. I ended up having to stop by a shop for them to put it on a lift and heat up the area.

Check out these original U bolts!

These turned a 1.5 hour job into a 4 hour job for me. PITA
