Ok...
Long story short, I bought my 99 daily driver with a 4. 5" skyjacker "lift kit" already installed, I had intentions to remove it for gooseneck height, driveability etc... Well, I waited too long and the wonderful lifted monster apparently first broke a pinion angle wedge which caused the u bolts to instantly be loose. Well, loose u bolts aren't very strong, both RH side bolts sheared off, axle shifted, tire hit the bed side, u joint broke, all 4 u joint strap bolts are sheared off, it broke the center bolt in the RH spring pack etc...
Well, I am unlifting now and making the truck right, my problem is, I am not 100% certain which leaf was added to the stock pack for the "lift"
I believe this truck is camper prep and it also does have a factory hitch and wiring as well as a rear sway bar. There is a spacer and a 2 leaf overload pack above the main pack, this is factory correct?
I believe the leaf above the overload should be the added one, but I need to be sure, I only want to put this thing back together once.
Can someone post pics of the stock rear spring pack on a camper prep truck of this era? (truck is an early 99 QC SB 4x4)
I appreciate it!
