I need to fab...
some U-bolt straps. I recently put 2" blocks under my leave springs ('70 GMC). Yes, I raised it. The block kit had new U-bolts instead of square-bolts like the factory. So the bolt plate that was under the axle, is now on top of the leaf springs. The fit is horrible, but I had to get thing back together.
Since the spring is a continuous arch, I was thinking about two 1/4" plates about1-1/2" X 5" or so each across each spring pack. Four plates total. A single plate would need to be contoured or it would only touch at the edges. Any thoughts?
