What is the preferred method for lining up the axle pivot bushings on twin traction beams with leaf springs?
.
Works best to not have the springs in there. Put pivot bolts in, then springs bolted to truck, then springs bolted to front end.

My next step would be to plug scan tool in and check cps signal on there, and buzz test.

Does this still have the early computer as well? If so come up with a newer one so you can get datastream from it.

Are you sure the valve is bad? Without the nut and spacer, the valve does not get controlled very good and can cause no starts and stalling.
