    Question: Spring clamp location?

    I clamped the front, approx 6 inches forward of the axle. I put them as far forward as their 2.5" width would allow. I'm shocked at the difference. I think I'll probably end up with new leafs eventually rather than trying to fix these. But in the meantime Im thrilled to have addressed the...

    Question: Spring clamp location?

    I'm kind of surprised, but the clamps made a Massive difference, massive. The leaf clunk is 95% gone, the axle wrap feels non existent across the board and the ride is definitely more controlled. Beaming still present but diminished. All in all, best $20 I've spent on my truck thus far, and I...

    Question: Spring clamp location?

    The u bolts are good and tight. The passenger side makes less noise, but has the overload springs slightly outboard at the ends. The center pin is there. I've got a fifth wheel brace in there if that might effect the leave springs. That SOB is flippin tight, so not a cause of noise unless in...

    Question: Spring clamp location?

    I definitely love the idea of traction bars. I'll end up with some eventually, but like you said I don't think they would solve the current issue. Or maybe they would, I really don't know. Right now the money is for trans and an airdog 4g. The bracket things look like they are 8 years old and...

    Question: Spring clamp location?

    I read in another thread that mcrat advises putting them in the rear, as the rear of the leaf pack is what expands under accel, opposite the force from the turning tire.

    Question: Spring clamp location?

    Long bars as in traction bars? I have new 5100's on there as of March, so I'd doubt it's shocks unless I got a dud. I've tightened/inspected everything under the truck. The only parts left are those related to the leaf springs. The bushings are crAcked, at least the portions that can be...

    Question: Spring clamp location?

    So I've got some interesting rapid succession clunks on uneven terrain, especially in reverse. Since clamps are cheap, I figured I'd see if I can get leafs tightened up and also reduce some wrap at the same time. I've got an '08 lmm CCSB. I don't pull over capacity and I'm not competing...

    my AR .308 for ELK ???

    There are definitely limited options in the larger caliber AR platforms, that's largely because they aren't well suited for long range accuracy. There are some small town options that if anyone is interested I can get info for. That's why I suggest making your own with a receiver set/bolt from...

    my AR .308 for ELK ???

    The nemos are cool, but way overpriced. For the kind of change there are better options, including sourcing and assembling your own.

    2008 F250 6.4 vs my LMM

    they texted me after, we exchanged numbers when saying goodbye. The mother in law could not stop laughing at the guy, cuz "he's never been beaten before". It was an excellent experience, especially because i've always been "told" a ford will destroy my truck. Was giddy afterwards lmao We are...

    2008 F250 6.4 vs my LMM

    So, my daytime gig is as a car salesman. Last night was closing shift, at 0745 a couple with mother in law in tow strolls through the lot. I end up seeing his rig, a silver 2008 6.4 F250 tuned and all done up. We chat about it for a minute, closing time comes and I tell them to scram but come...

    my AR .308 for ELK ???

    .308 is more than sufficient if the shooter does his job. I've used all the 30 cal cartridges for most types of game and ended up streamlining all my rifles to .223 and .308 except the .338 lapua. I have yet to have a beast stand up from a well placed .308. The only thing in NA I haven't gone...
