Spent the weekend installing new rear springs. I put new ones on because when the u-bolt broke at Rausch back in June, It sheared the center bolt and I lost 3 of the smaller leaves somewhere on the trial I guess which is why the Bronco rode 2" lower on the pass side,and apparently you can't buy just a couple of leaves, or just one side, so I had to do both. Since my taller jack stands are in use, had to improvise with the engine hoist. It was rather interesting working on it with the whole rear end being able to sway around, but once you get used to the movement, it wasn't too scary, and actually worked very well. I did have other jack stands further up the frame so it wouldn't have fallen too far if the hoist let go - safety first you know.
