I'm going to tear it all the way down to the frame. The way it is it now, all I have to do is drive the spring and shackle bolts out and I'm ready. I've been trying to decide if I want to blast it myself or take it somewhere. I'm leaning toward doing it myself since I do have access to the tools/equipment to do the job, but man its a nasty job.

For me, if I didn't do the frame I'd be thinking about it all the time once the truck is done.
