Question:
Do the 3/4 tons have front springs or coils - or is it just 4x4's

2WD's use coils and 4WD's use leafs. Applys to 1/2's and 3/4 tons.

My '72 3/4ton 2wd has coils in front and leafs in the back. However, I noticed that the front coils in my 3/4ton are a lot thicker than the ones in my 1/2ton.
