Re: 3/4 4x4 suspension
My K20 left the factory as a light-duty 3/4T (6800# GVWR iirc.... some idiot painted over the door jamb sticker). Front packs had 2 leaves each, and rears had 5.

Re: 3/4 4x4 suspension
My 72 3/4 came with 3 leaves up front. I think that was the heavy duty option.

Re: 3/4 4x4 suspension
67's had a one year only oddball set-up. If yours is 67, I'll find some pics of mine.

Re: 3/4 4x4 suspension
Mine sits lower than stock,I believe. But,here are some that are stock or close with different tires to compare.

Re: 3/4 4x4 suspension
Pasted this together from the data book. Gives overall height and load height. Just remember this is for a base six or eight with no options on the standard 8.75-16.5C (6PR) tires
