2 1/4 to 2 1/2 leaf spring
Hello, I'm sure there is a post bout this but I was unable to find it. I have a 71 GMC [2WD, LWB] that has 2 1/4 wide leaf springs in the rear. I would like to replace them with 2 1/2 wide springs. My question is what part(s) of the spring to frame mounts/shackles need to be changed, if any? will the 2 1/2 wide springs fit into the mounts used on the 2 1/4 stock springs. If some parts need to be changed any guidance on what/how to acquire them would be appreciated.
Thanks
