While at the hammers this weekend the rear hanger on the front spring came off the frame. Looked like it broke the factory welds. We melted about 6 rods on it to make sure it hung on for the rest of the trip. would like to see some solutions you have made to this prob. Don't say reverse shackle either, i'm eventually going dual shackles. Pics would be cool.

I'm a fairly new scout owner so i have lots of questions. I saw that pic a few years back and i think it would work, i just want to see so stuff actually done on a rig. Besides, if i didn't ask all these stupid ass questions you guys would have nothing to do. By the way, we should plan some kinda scout thang to hang at the hammers or truckheaven. Most of us are within driving distance.
