Here are some pictures of the front air helper springs, brackets, and shock mounts I made. The leaf springs were pretty well squished with the weight of the engine and cab, and the tie rod had been rubbing on the oil pan slightly. The air helper springs are necessary to bring the front of the truck up to ride height, and they are also the bump stops that keep the tie rod out of the oil pan. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2018358210080251109bIPxwl
