Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!

Nice! Thanks for the link. I'm on board.

I re-arched the OEM springs on the K20. What a waste of time/money. The ride quality was substantially improved with new springs. I also replaced the plastic liners/anti-squeak spring pack pads with the new springs.

One of the major truck vendors sells small asphalt pads for use between the bed to frame mounts. I used those at the time of the build. Maybe it quiets the ride a little bit. Maybe not. These didn't alter the body lines at least.
