Wanted: HD front spring pak for '67 K20 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Americanrider · 06-22-2005, 02:46 PM

I'm in the middle of a front axle swap and would like to upgrade my front leaf paks. Right now I have the stock 2 leaf pak. Looking for a 3 leaf pak, or an aftermarket 2 or 2.5 inch lift. It measures 44 inches eye to eye and 3 inches wide. I Would prefer to find this west of the Mississippi since shipping will be costly.
Thanks!

Would you be intersted in selling the factory springs if they are the same as a 1/2 ton? Shipping to 29730. I have a used set of 4" lift front springs off my 1/2 ton 67 4wd (will need bushings, has u bolts). Brand unknown, medium sorta stiffness. Greg

I have a set of lift springs on the front of my '67 K20. I was going to just take a leaf out to bring it down some. Maybe you can just add a leaf. I did the add a leaf thing to my '69 K20 25 years ago & it's still going strong..............Zoomy

Gregbr: I'd like to stay close to stock or no more than 2.5 inch lift. Thanks!

Zoomy: The trouble is finding one to add, nobody has the wide 3 inch stuff that is shorter than the bottom spring.

TTT anyone have this setup laying around?

All fords used 3 inch wide leafs. Go find a used one and saw it to your desired length. Make sure you put the centerhole in the correct place.

I am going to remove a set with 3 springs from my 68 in a couple of months. It has the 850 lb 305V6, so the truck had an extra factory spring. I am putting a 2 inch soft ride lift on. PM me if you are interested.
