stock leaf pack pic request
akamcbird replied to akamcbird's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
removed the bolton pos and my axle moves huray (lost 1/2" on the passenger side) also noticed the bottom most leaf (stiff shorty) on one side was put on backwords...no biggy ill deal with it later. all the springs were for a camper (i think, there are remnents of tiedown mounts on the frame) -
your all thinking to hard...use some scrap 2x4s and tos it end season -3 peices fastened over under, sitting in the bed a tiedown will hold it in place. even if there isnt a road to the lake\river
