Did you buy the 5 leaf 52" springs new? Did they come with the plastic sliders on the leaf tips like the factory springs? Did you remove the overload leaf or leave it on?

I got the springs for 50$ used off of a '74. Didn't even notice that there were no sliders like the rears of the ones that I have on the truck now. I may try and get those. All in all, these springs make a world of difference. The rear springs in the truck used to be the softer part of the suspension. Now I hit speed bumps and wait for the rear to knock a kidney out. I can't wait to put the 63's in and really smooth the ride out! Just waiting on the flip kit which should be here on Wednesday. By the time I'm done, I should have the 31 gallon Blazer tank and the 63" springs in the rear. I'm thinking it will be a drastic difference.
