Re: Napco questions

He had 3 original line built NAPCO trucks, the frame I bought was the only one that had these bump stops as part of the lifting block. This frame also had an extra set of leaf springs on top of the lower stack. The extra stack was also 5 leaves and shorter and the u-bolts looked to be about 3" longer. It all looked original and not added on but who knows when you're dealing with stuff that is over 50 years old.

The frame I got is from a GMC, the other 2 were Chevys. I'm not sure if they were configured different from a Chevy but it would appear that way?? I'm a NAPCO newbie and I have a lot to learn and figure out. I found more good info from the Stovebolt site than I did the Napco 4x4 owners website.
