    Can't line up Dana 50 leaf spring center pin

    So I've only dealt w solid axles, my f250 is my first ttb. Put some new bushings in my leaf springs and shackles (I have basically an oem setup). Trying to put my leafs back on and I can't figure out for the life of me how to get it all to fit back together. Ive tried bolting in the eye bolts...

    Idk if this has been mentioned yet, but I had the weirdest intermittent glow plug issues, stumped me for a good while. Turned out to be my fusible link wires would be hot but short under load.

    Aftermarket gauge ideas. 6.9 & 7.3

    In in the process of finishing this, but I deleted my ashtray and an autometer triple gauge mount fits perfect!! I also ordered some gauge angle rings to put them towards me at the angle I like.
