One CK5er offered me his driveway, but junkyard springs are too $$$

WTB > '91 Rear 3/4 Ton Sub Leaf Springs In Cal
I'm in Corona now, Tues AM, but travelling to LA, then north, then to Sac and the parks.
I need 3/4 ton rear leafs, and a place to install them. Any takers? Thx, Andrew 518-572-6450 Cell

Like i said, you can do it at my place and i'll help you. There is a wrecking yard just down the street from my shop (Pick-N-Pull) and they are cheap. If you are only needing stock springs there is usually a good selection of 3/4 ton trucks and burbs in this yard.

Oh GR8! Have you got their name or Telly no? Would be nice to meet you too...

The one I vidded yesterday wants $150, no ubolts, only they pull. Not in my price range! And they have several.. Stupid not to negotiate, but that's par... They'd rather crush than come down and sell 'em...

I could get you a number for the local Pick-N-Pull but it won't do you any good other than finding out their hours of operation. They do not do a computized inventory like some of the "normal" yards do. I can tell you though that they have probably 15 rows of nothing but trucks, burbs, blazers.

The local number is 510-792-5920

Just wanted to say i had the oppurtunity today to meet Andrew and give him a place to swap some springs around on his rig. He's a nice guy and look forward to meeting up with him again someday and hopefully having some time to hang out without him working on his rig.

He did make a youtube video or two in the parking lot of my shop today while talking with a few of my customers and i'm sure they'll be up sometime soon.

I've had a great time on my vacation, and Scott was a good host! I wish I woulda' had some time to better review his RIG, and make a vid, but such is life. I'm in Sacramento now, and soon off accross the country...
Here's the vids...

I now need someone to change my 700R4 Tranny oil and muffler. I'm in Reno now, and heading east thru Chicago. Any takers?
I was thinking maybe someone working in a service shop. I could do it myself, but need ta get home, and fluids a little dark, and muffler's thin... Thx, Andrew
