Re: 5" flexible upgrade install, leaf springs

I started by dropping the front part of the leaf springs and leaving the rest of the system still connected just so that I wouldn't have stuff falling all over the place. Just my preference.





I used a cutting wheel to cut off the front hangars. Then ground everything flat and prepped the metal for welding.


Centered the front hangar and the frame where it is to be mounted and welded
