So last Saturday I worked on the truck a little.. I cut off the rear shackle mounts on both sides but couldn't actually remove the shackles from the leaf springs. I don't have the right size jack stands to really work on it so off it is to the rednecks that build F150 pulling trucks! sometimes its good to know people

then you just grind the rivets! wear eye protection and ear protection... its really loud under the bed of the truck. I should have known I was in trouble when I hit the shackle with impact (after soaking it) and it tore right off the mount lol

next step will be to wire brush and chassis save the poor thing... when I get it back.
