She’s back on the ground. Was asked by a couple about sag and clearance on the ground, looks like not a ton has changed. I’m 50/50 if the back will bind up but it looks ok. After rolling it to set the suspension it definitely sits taller with the lighter springs after loosing the dual rate. It seems to rock easier but rebounds and stops quicker. 3/4” less preload all the way around will be my starting point.

Yeah but what will it be like at 40 MPH going over that 2' tree in the road?

Btw I noticed the outer a-arm bushings are really sloppy as well. Unfortunately didn’t have time to order them up so running that this weekend. All the rest were replaced.
Had The Wheel Guy a local repair comp clean up the rear wheel lug nut seats some. I think it might be ok after our last incident. Didn’t get pic before it went back on but here is the wheel prior. Replaced all studs to that hub and while at it replaced all the lug nuts, they were over 3yrs old from our last machine and pretty bunged up.

Hard to tell but there’s a ton of new s*** thrown at her in all four corners.

Finally getting around to fixing my bent up bumper. Got hit by this ass in Tennessee. I think he goes by the alias of @joeymt33, if anyone knows this guy tell him I’ll be back.
