[QUOTE="JThompson, post: 1061911, member: 16691"] So, I loosened us the clamps a little on my front packs. I didn't bend them all the way out, as I wanted to just take a look-see at how much it helped at all. It definitely let the springs droop a little bit more. Now to make them fully bent out, goalpost-style.:awesomework: As far as the rear springs go, I wish it was easier to understand what I am talking about with the design of my rears. They are a full seven leaf pack, with a similar sized leaf going from the spring clamp up near the front (hard mount) back to just behind the u-bolt plate. It aids in axle wrap, as these springs are supposed to be soft!! I just don't think I can undo the clam on the rear spring, as it is the only thing keeping that half-leaf from peeling up. That is the clamps only purpose. I am going to post a pic or link, whichever is easiest. I hope it works. [url]http://www.marlincrawler.com/htm/suspension/rear_kit.htm[/url] [/QUOTE]
