Napa had no listing for them, and LMC shows 4WD only and the other site showed 67-68 only.
I'm assuming the 4x4 ones must be the same, I'm going to try to measure them. Just didnt know of anyone with 2wd had changed them.

Weird, i removed the springs from the 70 GMC and they are 1 inch, the 72 are 1.1/4. They are 18.00 each. ugh! lol

Christ, trying to get someone to get me a part number on the phone is like trying to pull teeth, I need to open a parts store.

no you need to learn how to walkin to a store look a guy in the eye and ask for help guaranteed you get better results than troll by dialin

unfortunately I work 6 days a week and I'm at work before they open and am not out before they leave, have no choice but to troll dialing. Thanks.

I will look and see if I can find the box mine came in. I saved it because I also had a hard time finding them. Finally found them at the main Napa here in Phoenix. You should call ECE. If they don't have them, they will tell you where to get them. I went to a local spring shop a couple of years ago to get U bolts made and the guy said they were 2 1/2" springs. I told him they were 2 1/4" and he told me I was either wrong or they were not original. Took a spring in for him to see... Me=1 him=0. Brothers and CPP also think they are 2 1/2" springs. ECE KNOWS they are 2 1/4". I would start with them.

Cool, let me know if you do find the box, i could use the numbers. Meanwhile i will check with ECE.
Thanks

Thanks, i was just getting to search their site.

Re: 1/2ton leaf spring bushings
 

They don't even show them, i call them next week, but i'm going to Napa monday with the leaf springs, they should be able to find me some. Lets hope anyway.

Thanks all.

Ok, I finally found the box (I new I kept it for a reason). The part number at Napa is 274-1185. At least those are the ones my truck uses. I don't know if ECE sells them, but I do know they can probably tell you who sells them. Hope that helps.
