I used grade 8 zinc coated hardware. 9/16" for the spring mounts and shackles, and mostly 3/8" bolts for brackets. If you're gonna wheel or work your truck hard you could use 7/16" bolts.


I finally got my truck back in the garage. I've got to get back in build mode. I'm not sure what to do first. Any body got any suggestions?

Thanks for the advice.
