Delayed....
Finally was able to order all my parts to replace my leaf springs (two springs, new bolts & nuts, and a 3" block to replace the 2" factory) and was tracking them from the three corners of the U.S. hoping everything would come in time to do the work this weekend.
Nuts & bolts came from NY yesterday, springs came today from KS, and the 3" block is now held up for delivery due to weather...coming from NV on Wednesday....
So do I install the new springs now and do part of it over again when the block comes in? The block is easy... oh it's so tempting...
My stock springs were rated at 1,700# but the difference in price for an upgrade to 1,900# was only $25.00 per side so I went with the 1,900# rating.
Now that they are here I see a big difference in the thickness of the springs and stack....these should be good..may not need the 3" block.
