Took advantage of the time to wire brush and paint the rear end along with some other rough spots

Haha yeah its nice being able to get sideways on command... or at least when the open diff feels like cooperating lol

anyway Im putting the overload leafs back in today. had to take them out because of U bolt length and i wanted it lower but its just too soft out back and the wrap is pretty bad so I'm going to put them in and pull the spacers off the top of the leaf pack now that I got shorter centering bolts. I cant wait for my shackles to get here. I ordered them on tuesday from moes hoping I'd get some same days shipping action but it still says pending on their site :****sweak: guess I should have gone with Ebay. I found a set for the same price... oh well hopefully I'll get them next week.

Hey does anyone know what all goes into pulling off my trailer hitch? will i be able to put the stock bumper back on without it or will i be better of waiting until i do a roll pan.

In order to take the hitch off, you have to unbolt the bed completely. The hitch is bolted between the bed and the frame. Lift up on the bed and slide the whole hitch assembly out. Then you can re-bolt the bed and back bumper back on
