back home in michigan, playing in the mud was a big deal and to prevent the axle wrap problem, we would add ladder bars. people could run 10"+ lift and have 44" tires and bigger with little problems with ladder bars. with the boggers, they would usually install hydro steering, 4 link suspension...
im sure that my suspension is pretty wore out. its over 30 years old and i have no idea the kind of abuse that this truck went through. is there a place that i can get factory hi-boy suspensions brand new? will the hi-boy suspension bolt right in to my factory locations for my suspension? when i...
ive checked out my vin on other websites and i know it was produced in late 77 which means it IS a low-boy. thats what makes me think, with how it sits, that i have a high-boy suspension on it. bought the truck about 3 years ago from a guy that used it as a farm truck, he didnt have much...
