Looking for suggestions on 2 or 3 leaf front springs - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi,

Can some one tell me the difference between the 2 and 3 leaf front springs and the use or advantages of each. on some sites the leaf springs are the same price on others the 2 leaf are a lot more expensive.

I have been looking to remove my lift on a 72 4X4, I don't plan on doing any wheeling with it, it will be staying on the road and the most work it will do is towing a boat, max about 3500 lbs.

Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ken

3 leaf was heavy duty. If going stock, I would choose 3 over 2.
