all the above. Mine looked way better after pulling the trim off. Get yourself an eraser that goes on the end of your drill, works awesome!

Looks good Carey... you should have given me a holler, I'd have come out and helped. Looks a little lower than mine ... that shell on the back is leveling it out, if you take it off it will sit higher in the back, then you'll have to do something about it. I took out my overload springs.

it was supposed to be a 3/4 kit but i think it came down more than that. i dont want to take the overload springs out because whe i go home i am going to be using this truck to pull my 454SS to the track. i still need to put my rear sway bar on, you can help me do that if you want. i'll give you a call when i do it.
