As far as using 73-87 hangers, where there's a will.... there's a way.
Thanks SCOTI! Yeah that's my moto too. Spring width is 2 1/4. I'm thinking I can make them work, if I can't then I'll send um back.

PO put a 73 to 87 front end and rear end to have the 5 lug. But the leafs are original as for as I can tell. I took a leaf out a few years ago and it lowered it about 1/2" or so and it made it ride better too, and I have drop shackles on as well. I'm probably going to do a flip kit if I can't get the drop hangers to work.

Thanks again for your time!
