Just went to industrial maintenance from turning wrenches in a suspension shop. I loved what I did, loved the guys I worked with, but god damn I can say whole heartedly that I don’t miss the daily struggles. My hearing was so bad I never realized until I started my new cozy inside job. I’m only 34 years old but there are a lot of hard miles on this body, courtesy of work just like this. A true tip of the cap to you my guy and anyone else who does suspension work. It’s truly a man’s man’s job.

Looks like one of the Hendrickson setups. We got one just like it that had the ComposiLite tie-rod that was basically just a piece of flexible flat bar between each steering knuckle. It was the biggest piece of crap, a straight bolt through the ends of the tie-rod to the knuckles that had a tapered hole where your tie-rod end would normally seat. It would constantly come loose on one side and eventually wore the knuckle out to the point you couldn't keep the bolts tight, they'd come loose in a few hundred miles. Ended up having to replace the whole knuckle assembly, and replace the dampers with spring-loaded versions like this truck has and threw that composilite piece in the trash and put on a traditional round tie-rod tube and ends. No issues since. All that to try to save what 20 pounds.

Plus the tires wouldn't last 50,000 with out taking one side or the other.

I like the clear "oil level" type hub caps - like those from Stemco. The lens does get opaque with time though. But it allows a quick check of the hub oil level. What is your preference?

Someone install steerable drop axle on my truck. When I test ride, the drop axle keeps turning right and makes the ride unstable. What can be the problem?
