Re: Looking for 4" lift springs

I don't know of anyone that makes new regular production springs that will work with the original spring hangers. You might have to have them custom made from a specialty spring shop. Maybe Deaver spring.

Personally I would just change the spring hangers to those from a squarebody truck.

Re: Looking for 4" lift springs

I'm on a similar quest, looking to eliminate the factory lift blocks in the rear of my 64 k10.

some good info here with other threads suggested to read in it:

basically, if you do not want to replace all of the spring mounts / hangars the only option is to take it to a spring shop...
