Re: Finally Got My Stepside

This is what I found on the passenger side. I was wondering why that side was sitting lower. I guess the the previous owner cut the coils and one broke from the heat

Re: Finally Got My Stepside

Hey Brian,
No but I took measurements. The three inch drop coils raised the front end 11/2 inches from what I had. Somebody hacked my pictures and added their own somehow. I will repost my first picture.

Re: Finally Got My Stepside

I put 5 inch drop coils in the rear and I think it raised the rear end about the same 11/2 from what I started with.

Re: Finally Got My Stepside

Thanks 502ms
I guess I'm back to block sanding the cab. I would really like to paint the inside so I can start putting the interior back together.

Re: Finally Got My Stepside

Hi guys

Ok , I got the interior painted today. I'm really happy to to be starting paint. All though painting the cab was a little harder than I thought it was going to be especially the roof. I did get some orange peel.
