Got my Axle for my 57 back from Sid yesterday with new kingpins and bushings installed.
Also my main leafs for my front springs. He arched them the opposite way so now I have
reverse eye springs on the front. Wish I could have swapped for a 3 inch drop, but just wasn't in
the budget right now. Will still lower the front 2 or 3 inches as it is. Steering arms and such need
some cleaning up a little before I put it back together. Also have to do some leaf swapping to get
the spring stacks sorted out. Got a 59 coming with all the stuff I need to do it. They were supposed
to deliver it today, Saturday April 12, but haven't heard a word yet.
Guys phone won't ring or take messages. Voice on his phone says
''Sorry but this voice mailbox has not been set up yet!''.
Oh well, guess I'll go watch my grand kids play Soccer and Volleyball for a while.
He will probably call me once I have left the house. Ha! TR

Re: Axle and Springs
No Paul, it won't be at Pate, but plans are to be at SS in August.
Still have some other work to do on it between now and then.
Cross your fingers I get it ready in time. I am tired of not having
a truck to drive once there. TR

After the extended trip there, I'd seen enough of that cab for a day or so! Got another nice little run a few weeks later, though!
