Rear springs

Fitted a set of progressive springs on the rear axle today.

Took it for a test drive down a couple of lanes. Much better than the old saggy springs. Drove it over a few rocks and steps and it took it in it's stride without bottoming out or throwing you about.

I need to fit some on the front wishbones next.

It is always amazing what a good set of springs can do.  One of the reasons I always enjoy installing a good lift kit on an older truck - the springs always improve the ride 100%
If it's not leaking, it's out of oil
