    What three Heck Causes This?

    Replaced the springs, shocks and shackles so new bushings all the way around. Vendor said the springs should have never been installed with that gap between the spring bushings and the spring hanger. That definitely was a major contributing factor to the early wear. Initial test ride is...

    I sent the tech team photos. I'll see what they say. Don't want to bad mouth the vendor without giving them the chance to get this right. And thanks for your replies. You've confirmed my suspicions. Sent from my SM-G930V using WAYALIFE mobile app

    Actually ordered replacement springs because I thought they were stretched. They have yet to arrive. Not sure new bushings will help. But I'll address this with the vendor before I install anything. If I get more of the same stuff, I'll get another set of springs from another vendor...

    Surprisingly I had no wobble or vibration issues. And the stock bushings on the top of shackle are still good. Sent from my SM-G930V using WAYALIFE mobile app

    What three Heck Causes This?

    Yes was all new 7 years ago when I purchased it. Spring perches were good and tight. And these were supposed to be the correct part. Sent from my SM-G930V using WAYALIFE mobile app

    What three Heck Causes This?

    Yes the shackle was rotated all the way up. Jacking the truck from the frame would allow it to snap back into place. The leaf appear to be intact. Sent from my SM-G930V using WAYALIFE mobile app

    What three Heck Causes This?

    I bought a 6" suspension lift for my 1984 J-10, 7 years ago. Didn't have the space or time to install it, so I took it to a local offroad fab shop. The ride always seemed really stiff. Recently, while offloading, my left front shackle collapsed. I decided it was time to take the springs...

    Tow Rig/ Recovery Rig

    Thanks. It's 100% functional. Race radio, cb, Lowrance GPS, XM satellite radio. I thought about a diesel swap too. But may be heavy for the frame. Maybe a J20 would be better suited for a diesel. Also not much of a tow rig. It has a ball hitch but it's about 3ft. Off the ground. Oh...

    Snake season!

    Well, at the Fallon 250 race course, I opened the rear cubby on my travel trailer to get the power cord, to hook up my generator. I immediately heard a sound that sounded like air leaking. I thought to myself, "there's nothing here that has air in it". So... I turned on my light, scanned...

    Winch? Do all cheap winches not free spool?

    My Smittybilt 10,000 H20 winch free spools. It spools out do fast that if you're not careful you'll tangle the winch line. My Smittybilt XRC 9.5 also free spools but it does require a little more pull. I was told, by a Smittybilt rep, that the difference is the type of braking the winch has...
