Re: Spring Swap Thread - 1963 K15

Small update. I so impressed with how the front springs rode that I pulled the truck back in the garage on Friday and started going to town on the back half of it. I figured that the front was fairly easy, how hard could the rear be - especially with the bed off?
Anyway, all of the old hangers came off easily within an hour on Sat. morning. They exposed some rust that I was sure would have fossils in it. Not quite surface rust and not quite rot either. A little more than I like to see on a frame but its what I have to work with.
