just go to ***************** and they will set you up nice. if you want high qiulity high end stuff, air ride had front and rear strong arms for your truck. but for the front i used SD's front brackets and slam specialties bags.

leaf springs???? i thought 67-72 shortbeds came with coils? you can order one of ***************** 's 4 link kits, or if you want to go cheap, you can remove some leafs and order some sleeve bags and brackets and a good size notch for the rear. you will still need valves and all that. how much you want to spend?

A lot of GMC's are leaf. Your best be is to either use a stock trailing arm type setup, or go 4 link.
