I recently had some online tutoring about front suspension set up and proper steering geometry followed by a lecture on the sins of Hot Rodding a truck...all from HRL. thumbs_up This afternoon I ordered a 6 degree shim kit from Performance Online and new main leafs for the front springs from Classic Parts. I'm also looking at a reman Saginaw 708 steering gear from Lee Steering, they offer a unit with 14 to 1 ratio and a 35lbs pressure valve set up . I 'll need to rebuild the front spring pack and set the caster... again. The 59' should steer like a gocart after all this. grin

Thank You Jerry, I enjoyed being back in shop class.
