I was going to use the original springs, taking out 4 of the leafs. But now I want to lower the front end by way of monoleafs.
Someone here mentioned a guy by the name of Jim Durant. Does anyone know his number so I can call him? I haven't found anyone else that can help, I called CPP, and Chassis Engineering as well.
Plan B would be to just buy a new set and pull some of the leafs out.
I have seen the posts as well about the axle drop, but I want to play it out this way first.
Any one have any experience with this approach? I'm also not sure they are the same as the AD models. In terms of width and span.
