I just finished installing my new springs bushings and shackle kit from patricks on my 51 .3100. the kit from patricks has four leafs rather then the mono leaf.It lowered the front by two inchs,Patrick also supplies two inch lowering blocks for the rear, The truck rides a lot smoother with no bounce at all, It also corners better ,I still might go for the sway bar. It took about three hours to install,springs and new bushings. Upper bushings were a little hard to get out ,but glad that I changed them they were all ovel shaped as well as the old spring eyes .I think the kit was well worth it ,and Patricks parts are always top quality.
