Gsk Hellp Truck Is Apart

Okay gents truck is apart but Im a little confused. They say to remove all shims and that there is usually always 3 but to remove all 3 I had to pull big spring and set it aside inside of pump then remove it because its as large as the largest spring. So I have 2 skinny and 1 fat one. So whats the deal do I need to put this one back??

That's correct. Install only the springs that came with the kit. I put all the stock springs in the console just incase I needed them one day. But if I remember correctly use only the springs that came with the kit. Good luck

Those are your stock springs...

U have to remove everything inside the springs. Including the shims, i had two or three per side, the big spring is for ur idle. The stock springs go, just put in the new ones that came with ur kit.... and enjoy

Called city diesel

Although he wasnt sure he said didnt really matter just make up for it with adjustment so I left everything out. There instructions need a little refining how they missed such a clear issue to be covered dont know. Truck wont idle now so might need to make a adjustment but it runs great and pulls hard with the number 10 plate! Thanks for the info.
