Re: Opinions about original helper springs
My grandpa has them on his 64 c10 long fleet. He lowered his truck 2/4. Maybe he will let me have them for my stock 65.

Re: Opinions about original helper springs
The earlier trucks (60-66) had 3 spring set ups and the 67-72 had a single spring set up....but both will work on our trucks.
Dans66Chevy....I responded with the part number your looking for in PM.

Re: Opinions about original helper springs
I'm glad I stumbled upon this thread. My 66' has the single leaf ones. I had been wondering if they were factory. I will be removing them in the next week or so because I'm lowering the rear by 4".

Re: Opinions about original helper springs
Being so close to the 67 year model change in the springs, they may be original. Or even a dealer or PO install after 66.
