How to Replace Leaf Springs and Lift your Truck

How to Replace Leaf Springs and Lift your Truck

Learn how to replace rusty leaf springs, shackles, and leaf spring mounting brackets in your truck or suv. I also show how to replace leaf spring bushings and remove the rust and undercoat the frame of your vehicle. We lift the truck in the process by using Chevy/Dodge lowering shackles which fit the Ford Ranger/Mazda B-Series trucks.

I_Like_Space says:

Hey Chris, I've got a question hopefully you can help me out with. On my 1997 F150 after driving for a while when everything's all warm my oil pressure gauge will flatline if I'm stopped while in drive. Going into park or neutral brings the pressure gauge back up or if I accelerate. I changed the pressure sensor already, could it be a fault in the dash or would it be my oil pump going out? Thanks a million for your life saving videos!
