GI.SS Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Clamp the leaf spring in the rear. But I've heard of two different way to clamp them. Both 15-18" before or after the axle. I know someone on here must have done it. It's supposed to help with axle wrap and planting the rear end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or some of the 4wd guys use a shackle on the X-member, and a traction bar? I think I am going to buy a set of cal tracks for now, but later on I want to possibly go to bags and a 4 link.......

rhoush Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 That's what I thought didn't think they looked like 3 should be good enough for me cause I'm not going force feed for a long while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC03SS Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Those really look like a nice set of headers. If I were looking for some I would take a hard look at them and great price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GI.SS Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Yea I took the dive and I'm very happy with them. Can't complain at all. Truck is just a little loud now, and has really bad drone but that's from my exhaust setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyson1972 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 No problem for the help and dinner, anytime Steve. I know I will be getting some help from you when I install my Pacesetters, and Kooks high flow cats. Hey Rich, Steve, you and I should go to the track in Fayetteville someday this spring when the weather is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
