Need a set of good rear leaf springs for my 83 C10
Does anyone have a set? Or know where I can get some "cheap"? I am tired of looking at my truck sitting lower on one side.
thanks ------------------ Sean 1971 SWB Frame up Project (going to be street truck) 83 C10 LWB (new daily driver) Jacksonville, Florida

seanu,
Hey another '83 back on the road!! Mine is an '83 too. Does the truck actually have a leaf spring missing? These trucks are known for having the "tweek" in the bed. Mine has it too. A heavy tonneau cover helped but since I removed the bed tweek is back. Your too far from TX to get some cheap leafsprings. They are plentiful around here. Start looking for some local swap meets. Summer is coming and so are swap meets. ------------------ Gerardo 1983 Custom Truck TX Plates: "BAD BOW" [This message has been edited by gchemist (edited April 03, 2002).] |

Well I think some one replaced one of the springs in mine with another one, maybe a different load rating. It sits about an inch or so lower on the left than the right. I can even load the bed and it still sits lower on the one side.
