Stock Rear?

Been researching rear suspension options for my 62'. Starting to wonder if the layout I have is stock. Mainly with the shocks and how they mount to the frame... I think it is but I know my wife's grandpa did a lot to this thing.

What do you guys think?

Yes it is stock. Those shocks are not. Heavy duty with helper springs, must have had big camper.

Great, Thanks Guys!!

And yes, It had a big ole camper. He even had a pass thru window to the cab so when the family was driving around his daughters could make him some coffee

Also had to aux tanks he built and installed.

He also loves to tell a story about peeling out with about 2,000 lbs of rock in the back. Good stuff I tell ya!
