It's a sad day. Last full day I get to spend with my truck. She will be leaving me tomorrow around 2pm. If we could get a GFB moment of silence at that time. It would be much appreciated.

Soon to be new owner requested a rear bumper with hitch.

Here are pictures from my Last update on her.

Then I must have burned a hole in my pocket because I spilled my change on the bumper... What a mess. haha

Yeah it sucks. I had really thought this one was staying. I was really looking forward to linking her. But she is going to a good home.

I am sure it is a small consolation that she'll end up at a good home. However, now you've done a leaf spring setup and realized that you really like 4 links much better. Since you were gonna link this one eventually.

She just drove off with her new owner. It was harder than I thought to let it go. I kept talking to stall him here. haha.

I have to say the leaf springs did better than I thought, but I will most likely never do leafs on a build again. Seems to be about the same about of work and no where near as adjustable.

Yes foa coilovers up front and foa 3.5 bypass in the rear. The coilovers are fine. Good for the price. Stay away from the 3.5's nothing but trouble.
