Rear Suspensipon Identification - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 1969 Chevrolet C10 with a 'unique' addition to the rear suspension. It has the trailing arms and coils and what appears to be half leaf, helper springs.

Is this a factory item or aftermarket from back in the day? Where may I find NOS versions?

Those look to be aftermarket. The factory ones would look like this. (Photo below) No idea about NOS but since there really isn't any wear items you should be able to find some in good condition. They come up for sale in the classified section regularly.

And Welcome Aboard!
