Front Front shackles 1959
It seems to me that the last year of the front front shackles was 1959. Then after, anything with front leaf springs had the shackles on the Front rear - 4wds like my 67.
I fought a darting problem on my conversion 1959 GMC Fleet 4wd - 85 running gears. My 1959 front leaf springs have all new bushings and pins front and rear. Also a new steering box, new ball joints, all new joints in steering. It has had the toe set to zero. The only thing I had left was front front shackles unlike my 67 with front rear shackles. Changing my 59 to be like the 67 is very involved but I have improved the steering with a 3/4 ton 4wd sway bar. I wonder how the pre 1960 Napcos drove with the front front shackles.
