Looks really RAD:Wow1: there NoJeep! Thanks for posting up... I was wondering what you think of only running 2 leafs. I have 5 and would even love more... But I always go with a stify. I guess thats why the girls like to ride along....:ylsmoke:

I didn't mind the stiff front ride so much as it was very unbalanced with the rear. This caused the front axle to "throw" the rear around naming for an unnerving ride at times, most of the time... If the rear was equally stiff it would be ok, and I'm going to keep the overload since I'm going too be putting a heavy winch bumper on soon and I might appreciate the extra spring rate then.

Ok Nojeep now I understand your reason for making the front softer. The truck looks great!:drool:

No real technical stuff, just some camping for the sake of getting out there.

Couldn't stand not having tow hooks anymore since the axle swap brackets don't provide for any, so I fixed that.

Started by removing the entire grill and bumper to access the frame, then decided where to put them

Did some cutting

Some longer bolts and some washers and I'm good to go

Then I had to cut the bumper

Final install
