Rear Spring question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

b.sharp · 03-17-2007, 10:42 PM

I'm converting a '59 swb feetside 2wd into a 4wd. Front end is in, rear is not. Right now the front sits about 6" higher than the rear. My problem is that I'm using the stock springs that are narrower than the typical 4wd springs. Does anyone know where I can get a set of rear springs for my rig? My original springs and bracket holes are 2" wide. I hate to use blocks but if I can't find a spring that will work I may have to go that route. Does anyone have any suggestions. I would appreciate any input.

Thanks in advance, Bryan
