Hello all,I have searched the net, called energy suspension, and bronco graveyard and still can not find a lead for the shackle to frame bushing.My header has cooked the original bushing. I am installing new headers but need to fix this bushing in the process.Does anyone know of a part...

Hello all,I am finishing the correction on my front suspension (saggin spring, bent shackles, etc) and realize one of my bigger problems is my header is touching the shackle. This excessive heat is cooking the bushing. The busing in the frame is toast so i will be replacing both.If anyone...

Hello all,My front shackles are bent and my new skyjacker springs are already sagging (driver side about 1.5 inches) so it is time to pull it all apart a second time. My existing shackles are bent to the side.That said, ORD has upgraded shackle hangers for older chevys and i am...

Hello everyone,I know some guys on here are running the skyjacker springs. I need to order 6 inch springs for the rear.Can anyone confirm if they are using the factory 3 inch block when installing the new spring? I called skyjacker and they said I would most likely need it?? Just looking...

Hello all,Somewhere i was reading about this problem and now i have it and can not find the old link.78 f250 400,I changed the fuel line from the tank switch valve to the pump with all rubber/braided line. The metal was too close to the header and causing vaporlock issues but other than...

Hello all,I know a few guys on here are running the skyjacker 6" lift. I just installed my new TREs and went for a drive. It is horrible. I might have added to my correction. The drag link looks flat, but maybe it is to the ground but not to the geometry of the truck?? You can not see it...

I have a 78 f250 with the 400. The carb needs rebuilding and I was wondering how much of this smog stuff can be removed. I do not have a smog test where i live and was thinking about just saving and storing the parts.Currently, the smog pump has no belt, and the truck has headers. I guess...

Hello all, I thought i would share info on a product. It might save someone some time and money in the future.I bought the extended brake lines from skyjacker and they are junk in my opinion. They use a generic hose cut to length and then have adapters to fit any truck. I think that is poor...

Hello again,I Bought my new tires and installed them today and they do not look right at all. I have run 36/12.5 TSL SX before and the tires did not look like this. My new ones are 38/14.5 on a 10" rim. I know bias sometime are not as flat, but this is weird.

Hello,Can anyone tell me if I am missing a diffuser or cover for my air recirculation intake. I see no mounting holes or signs of anything missing but it is extremely loud with the fan on high. THe AC uses inside air with the flap open. I see nothing listed on LMC. My old 77 when i was a...

Hello everyone,Would anyone like to share some pictures of their rim and tire combinations? I like the look of the american racing Baja rims on the truck. I am currently in the 4-6 lift range, and running 38/15.5 on 16.5x12 rims. (maybe 10's, hard to measure, still on the truck) I have...
