66 4x4 question?
looking into possibly buying a 66 chevy 4x4 k10 and doing some major swaps nv4500/lowmax 205 twin sticked , d60 14bolt etc. Now does anyone know the leaf spring lengths of the stock 1966 4x4 k10 pickups length wise? or are they the same length as the 67-72 chevys?

Re: 66 4x4 question?
I can't tell you the stock spring lengths, but from the sounds of what you are planning for the rest of the drivetrain, I would go with 52's up front and either 56's or 63's in the rear. You could either fab your own spring hangers or go with some DIY4x parts and modify if needed. The frames aren't that much different than the '67-'72's.

Re: 66 4x4 question?
Hope you already have the lomax205 as they are not currently in production.
Here is a thread on a nv4500 http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=431033 try doing a search another member has a thread for doing a 52 inch spring conversion.
