Re: 75' c10 rear into 69' c20 truck

I am doing a swap on my 1967 GMC 3/4 ton with leafs only ( no coils ). The previous owner had installed a 14 bolt GM Corporate, I'm doing a disc/drum 5 lug conversion and full suspension swap using a 1974 chevy 1/2 ton as my donor vehicle. The only thing I had to move on the rearend was my shock mounts, I am doing a 4/6 drop. Waiting to install my shock mounts after I install the flip kit on the 1974 Chevy 1/2 ton truck 12 bolt, but the leaf springs lined right up without any issues.

Yep, 3/4" per side, assuming they're both 12 bolts...
