Re: 3r!c84 build

i've noticed you mentioned when you paint the truck. what color have you decided to go with? something like the original or complete color change?

easy if you have two floor jacks, the way I do is lift the front rear spring hanger then with other jack on the same side lift up the frame around the front body mount then remove the jack lifting the spring hanger to the cross member and lift away

That's the way it was with mine! It was so much work to jack it up to work on it. I made my own bag mounts for the front, bought some bags and now I can raise it back up to stock height or enough to get a jack under it.....They make life soo much easier!
