Neat find.

Thanks! It is the first one I have seen.

Could you tell a difference between it and your 86?
I like the stance of our trucks as they are but also haven't seen one with and one without next to each other.

Scott, I like the stance on my 86 better. The 94 was even IMO.

It says it’s for ride height and not weight capacity, but when I went over rough railroad tracks I have to feel around on the floor to find my teeth!

I think, and heavy on the think part, that the 86 rides better. And I know that’s not saying much.

So this is for both Ttb f250 and straight axle on a 350?
Interesting

No, looks like it excludes the monobeam/D60 1 tons.
