EDIT: SAGGY SPRINGS

[HummBebe]

Well, I got a call from the mechanic who was turning up my T-Bars.

Since I had the new goodies put on, the front end went down to 20 1/4, from 22 1/2. (measuring center hub to fender base).

He turned them 4 times and only got it to go to 22 DS and 21 3/4 PS. When he walked back to look at it, he said the front end was higher than the back.

He said I had a dent (I call it a ding) in my DS Leaf spring about 4" from the hanger. Nothing bad, just had a little rock rash. Can't imagine where I did that

He also said he measured a stock Adventure Pkg., and I was a full 2 inches lower, (less room to stuff those big ass 35's).

The Caveat.....I forgot to ask him if he unloaded my rear cargo area....
I have all my tools (lots), hi-lift, ice chest, suitcase and stuff back there.

We discussed two things....having the current springs re arced (sp?) to take the rear back to stock, or replacing the springs with custom made/arced ones.

I've seen on this forum and others that there are issues with GM springs sagging....so not really sure which direction to go at this time.....


Like that
