Default 3GSK/idle

finally got my afc spring that i have been waiting for to complete the 3GSK job since i had it all apart. got her all back together and took it for a drive and WOW what a difference!!!!!! only question would be is where is the idle adjustment? want to turn her down a little as it idles a little high.

yes i did. truck runs great, just idles a little high. around 1000rpm but i expected that it would idle high. was at 850 before and i set the springs at .050" so just going to adjust the idle. i checked my measurement 4 times to make sure they were the same.
