I did some work on the seat belts and fluids and had to take some pics for the insurance lady so I thought I'd post a couple. Found the manual protecto plate and service tag in glove box. Enjoy

Nice truck but those rear springs look a little odd, were they heated up to lower the truck?

Mine look exactly the same, and they are stock as far as I know. My truck sits at the stock ride height.

Beautiful truck. The dash looks great with the gauge package and original style wheel.
The under dash A/C unit certainly fits nice.

FYI – the rear springs appear to be regular variable-rate coils. They may be original to the truck because new springs usually have larger gaps between the close together coils.

Not sure I doubt it as my father in law owned it I was gonna post pics and ask if thats the way they are supposed to look or if they may have sagged as is sat with the camper on if for years and there is no sign of heating. But not sure I don't think the old man would have done it though.
