So, I am sitting here away from home watching the snow fall with nothing better to do...
We are building a race rig and have a few thoughts that I'd like some input on.
The truck is being built on a budget and according to the rules for a class A rig. The class is along the lines of being stock, but allows for some mods to be done. For those that care, rules are here:

Right now I am pondering using F150 rear leafs vs a 10 pack EB style leaf. Main reason is that my spring perches are already cleaned off and that it would be a lot easier to find replacement springs instead of having to order them. Any thoughts from those that may have done it or considered it?
Next, I'd love to see any ideas for trussing the front or rear axles. Not for links, but for strength. Seen a few threads on here, but not many..
