Something like this? but with the bolt eye raised?

This is what I designed and fabricated to increase the axle perch width to 42.5" and use the same rivet holes on a 4x4.

How low are you trying to go? There are axle flip kits that can accomplish the same thing a little cheaper. It usually keeps a good pinion angle.

i didint see this til now, this truck my wife and her dad built like 20 years ago and im changing a few things. it currently had a 9inch axle, drop shackles and custom made springs from a local spring shop. i really just want another inch or so.

You missed those because it says in description “67-72 C10 trucks came with coil springs. These are for modified vehicles.” To my knowledge, no one offers lowered leaf spring hangers for he 2 1/4” wide leaf springs. I put a DJM flip kit on my ‘69 leaf spring optioned C10 12 years ago and it lowered the truck just over 7”. I have a set of ECE lowering shackles I never used thinking I might want to go down one more inch!

If the truck is flipped, the addition of a block can lower it the height of the block. Cheapest easiest mini-truck way of getting it down!
