Do you know who made them.? Maybe a few contacts would turn some up . I also remember some one telling me the 88 to 98 lift spindles could be altered to fit our trucks ???

Re: for those looking for 2wd lift

Has anyone ever tried stock 88-98 half-ton coil springs? Back in the day, I used a set for a 2" lift on my 73 half ton 2WD truck. They'll fit easily in the stock location. You'll just need to cut them to size. It took a while to fit them to the desired height but they ride so much better than the super-thick motorhome springs I've seen sold by retailers. Plus, you can pick them up at a junkyard for around 10-20$. Just a suggestion...
