Trust me, they work. Amazon is just messed up. It used to say they do, now it says they don't. They're the same part and they work fine.

Here's a screenshot from my purchase with Amazon saying those coils won't fit my truck. The second picture is another screenshot from if you just scroll down on the product description. The yellow is my highlight. Like I said, they work fine.

grabbed a bunch of bricks for extra winter weight, they were tossed in front of our project house after destroying the chimney so doubling as garbage removal. found a few lbs of scrap while I was at it, so I can make a couple bucks off that. once I got back with it all I sorted it out and did a little clean up in the bed.


wondering whether or not to go back up and grab a few more, the trucks close level so it should be enough.

That should be good. It doesn't take a lot of weight. I used to have 10 cinder blocks I would strap in over the rear axle in my old 2wd during winter in Ohio. If you can figure out a way to keep them over your axle that would be even better.

Just heard back from the dealership. Everything but my bank 2 cat is covered. So they're pricing out an aftermarket part, since the Factory cats are $1600. Hugh five!

I can't keep them over the axle, I need the space. It's bad enough having a short bed and worse having the space taken up by the weight. Haha but a fair price for not sliding around every which way in winter.

It seems lightly less weight than she's carried for the past 2 winters, but it should be enough. And some room left for normal loads.

I've had an idea to build a flat container to go on the bottom of the bed, the full length but not very deep. That way you've got the full area of the bed available and almost the full depth, but safely enclosed weight. Might get around to it next year.
