Obsolete Spring Seats!!!

[tmcphail]

For those that have never dealt with Torrie or Fastpartsnetwork, they are an excellent company to deal with. I've bought various things over the years from them, and they have always been very prompt in quoting, helping and delivery, and the items arrive as advertised. A++ Vendor!

Thanks a bunch JD !

I'd say I got about an 1 1/4 out of the leafs. I didnt install the seats cause ilike the slanted forward (slightly) look.

Somehow the measurements from the axle centerline to the bottom of the fender are the same as they were when I measured a while back. But when I compare my dads truck and mine next to each other mine us an 1 1/4" higher
:scratch:

so the seats will have to wait till a get some 2" shackels made.

used auto zone shackels and put in the poly spacers.

Looks good and now is ready for the body lift!

Didnt NEED the spring compressors but they would have made things easier if I still had them.

Anyways thanks for your help guys.

Who says you cannot find these? A trip to the local Pick A Part and 6 bux and
bam! oh and for reference these came outta a 1983 F-150 4x2 was looking at them and i think the part number on em is different from the numbers Tbars and other have used. But i will verify this after i get em cleaned up and of course install em when it cools down a bit Which i hope is b4 next wekend

...i can't tell from the picture but do they look like these...:scratch:...and yes, there is a number on the coil seats but you cannot get them with that #...the computer #,part #, is different from the stamped number...

No these ones have no tab sticking down from em like yours and the bases are tapered all the way around

so hopefully they work

..if you look close, the hole in the top is also offset...
