WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
I am needing rear leaf springs for my 68 gmc short bed. I think any leaf spring from any 67-69 c10 1/2 ton will work. Let me know thanks!

Re: WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
I am going to be bagging my truck and have a nice set of 72 1/2 ton leaf springs still installed. Also have POL 2" lowering shackles if you are interested. First 2 pictures are before frame was sand blasted 3rd is after with chassis on the lift.
Let me know I think they will work but would be some freight involved.

Re: WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
I measured them it is 52" from center bolt to center bolt and 2 1/4" wide leafs. Hopefully if its the same it will fit. Let me know!! Thanks again
I didn't realize you had a 68 gmc as well its beautiful love the way it sits. If anyone would know if it fits I'm sure you would. lol

Re: WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
Yes they are the same thing.
 Mine are just under 51" x 2.25" with no weight on the frame. With the weight of the bed and the cab I am sure they would hit your 52". I'll PM you my phone number. Here is how the truck sat before I started the restoration.

Before you cut or unbolt them, I'm interested in the spring hangers if you want to sell them

I don't think he needs the hangers and could sell them to you possibly to offset some cost? If he passes I may leave the chassis as a roller for now. Unless sombody else needs them?

Re: WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
Not wanting to step on anybodys toes but did you price any new ones? The shipping could be pushing the sale over the new price. Just saying.

Re: WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
I looked at some online and they were a lot more than I would have thought. Don't know if theres a spring shop local or not .

Re: WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
I am going to have to pass. I found some locally closer to what price I needed it at. I appreciate your time 7dee2 If the shipping wasn't so high it could have worked out. Once again thanks for the replies.

Re: WTB Rear Leaf Springs 68 1/2 ton
That's OK Matt. No problem I'll just leave my chassis as a roller for now. Glad you found a better solution.
