That is one sweet-looking CUCV! Makes me jones for getting mine done. I picked up the rear 63" springs from the junkyard a couple of weeks ago, but now I am working on dog pens at our new house in Florida, along with getting my deuces moved down there. Anyway, looks good, and gives me some...

Hey Private, you need to take it easy first of all. Second, I don't pimp out anything here. I mentioned Kert's products too in another thread, and if you want adjustability, that's the way to go. My wife would be the first one to tell you I would be screwed for weeks trying to decide which hole...

I thought of that too, but my leafs are not in the pics, so I figured he might be asking about the missing pitman arm. I don't think I would want zero rates on the front. They are ok on the rear, but even though they are part of the spring pack, they still look like they would act as levers for...

I sent a scanned copy of my military ID card, and Matt gave me a price I couldn't refuse. I still haven't installed the rear shackle flips, but they are a perfect match to the front perches as far as answering the question: where's the beef? Matt let me have both the front and rear kits for $160...

Nice truck, but are those cobwebs I see on the TC?

I couldn't find the other thread where we were discussing lifting a CUCV using rear 52" springs from a blazer. Anyway, here is a link for the front mounts I am going to use. I did not want to move the axle more than 2" forward, so these should be perfect. The makers of them are extremely proud...

Thanks for the info. I am still currently at the stage of placing the front springs. It is a little tricky figuring out how they should mount when they were not originally intended for this use. I've cut a piece of 2x4 52" long and marked the center at 26". Then I hung a small washer from a...

Hey Scottodog, what are those things in the front below the bumper on your M1008? I am in the process of doing a lift on mine with 52" springs. I have not quite decided if I am going to keep the pivot point in the front, or make a braket for the rear and make that the pivot, then do a "shackle...
