I'm guessing that you are talking about a crew cab truck. All crew cabs have different spring spacing on the rear axle than any k10, k20, k5 and burbs do. So if you use k20 spring hangers you can swap the rear axle out of the k20 into the crew cab or you can cut the spring perches off the crew cab axle and move them the appropriate amount and be able to bolt it up. I used 1.5" 3/8 grade 8 bolts.
