Even cooler.
Why the switch to leaf springs?

He used the truck as a daily driver from the day of the rebuild up until a few years ago when gas prices went up. He used it to pull the car trailer with his Camaro to shows. And he felt the leafs gave the truck a little more stability with the trailer, and it seams to have a much higher payload then mine with coils.
Edit: I just went back and looked at the pics again. It looks like a 5 leaf spring pack with a helper spring under that. I would definitely say the swap has for towing/hauling.

Do you have any pics of it. I'd be interested in seeing another truck with a DS antenna.
