Re: 1980 Chevy K20 Farm Truck

Powered through the soreness and got leaf spring #4 installed, really fought the hanger bolt on this one. Honestly replacing the springs isn't that bad, except for that one bolt!!

Here are some pics from the final spring install







Bought the pictured Harbor Freight 12 ton jacks stands a year ago. They were super overkill but I wanted something tall enough to support the frame. These were spendy but my goodness what a good investment! I've used them a bunch and since they are so big, they are super stable. I feel much safer with 24 rated tons keeping the truck above me and not on my head!
