suspension lift
I have a 1968 Chevrolet K20 looking to put a 12 inch lift on it. Does anyone know who sells leaf springs for that or another spring from a truck that will fit?

Re: suspension lift
I wish I could answer your question,... but I'm not a 4x4 guy.
Even though this is the suspension section,... you might have better luck getting an answer in the 4x4 section. Anyone else here know?

Try Gitts Springs in Auburn WA. I bought my stock springs from them. They should be able to help you.www.gittspring.com

Re: suspension lift
Superlift makes 12" lifts off the shelf.The problem is finding '68 or earlier springs,since they are wider.
