Re: 72 k20

Front is 95% done, onto the back now. Got the passenger rear spring out, the spring and shackle bolts fought me a bit but in the end my BFH, penetrating oil, and patience prevailed. Ill be able to use the bolts again if I choose too. I installed my 1” ORD zero rates on the 4” rough country springs too. I’m very happy with them. I moved it around so I could get it in a good spot to start the rear, the brakes definitely have a different feel to them with the 60, but they still stopped just fine. I’ve seen this before, so I’m not really surprised.

I’m just picking at this thing a few hours at a time just enjoying wrenching more than anything. I’ve done lift kits in way less time in the past but there’s just something therapeutic about it all this time around. I don’t ever intend to sell this truck and I’ve enjoyed creating the memories I have with it over the past 9 years. I was thinking today my oldest daughter wasn’t even 6 months old when I bought it, she’s going to be 10 in November. Where does the time go?
