Well I just finished, the overload leafs gave me the biggest problem, it had crappy hardware and I ended up cutting them off. I was slow going with just myself and once my buddy got here who had no idea about leaf springs, things moved along faster. I found it easier, once you have the axle removed from the leaves, jack it up and set it up on jack stands, install the leafs, then lower your axle down onto the leafs, that way you can torque it whichever way you need to, to make it fall into place. If you would like a write up, I can do one really easy since it is still fresh. I am pretty particlar as well.
But I however do have a new question, one that somewhat concerns me. While I was doing the front, the bolt on the left of the Isuzu for the torsion bars was extremely tough, I even had to use my trusty pipe for my socket wrench. But the left side was really really easy, I was able to do it with just the socket wrench by itself. Now keep in mind, I sprayed each side once a day for three straight days with PB blaster, making sure it was well coated. Is this normal, or do I have a problem waiting to happen?

Next is a body lift, I think there are ten points under the Amigo, but not positive. I think I am going to do a 2" lift.


2000 Chevy Tahoe nothing special. 1990 Isuzu Amigo, 3" lift, 31x10.5x15 BFG All Terrain (Street), 33x12.5x15 (offroad), Pacesetter header, some ATM rash. More mods to come......
