    deuce rear suspension question

    Alright. Things I will try once it has a working power plant. Since mine is on the ground next to it and the upcoming 5.9 is still in pieces in the garage I would assume this will be a while off. Does it move enough laterally for the tires to hit the bed if its singled out? Also could...

    rear dog bones?

    Warthog and 73m819 thanks for your replies both. i now see that the differences are much more than a new rod and bolt. i usually blaze the new trail years before others and end up at the same place in time as others that left much later than me because they did the research first.
