Thanks for the insight, those are some things that I'll definitely look into. I've had the truck for almost three years now, and it's a daily driver most of the time, I'am normally not afraid to jump in it and make a 150-200 mile trip with it, as it has ran really well and been pretty reliable so far. I've rebuilt the rear third member, added a lock-right, rebuilt the transfer case, tore the tranny down and reassembled it. The spring that broke was a replacement set from VPW (less than 2yrs ago), and the steering gear was going to be a winter project in between 4-wheeling trips, only because it and the front diff were the only gearboxes that I had not been into yet, and niether seemed in need of immediate attention. I will definitely weld the spring back together and throw it in the box for now as a spare just in case.
Thanx for the insight
Dylan
