I will remove the leaf springs at the rear shackle. Remove the part that goes from the spring to the bracket on the frame "shackle". cut it in half, add two inches of steel in the newly created opening, weld it up with reinforcement added and reinstall it in the truck( in reverse order as described). I wished I had photos. I will be doing this next week and can post a play by play if you want it.
