This exchange made me smile.
The front perches are quite different (angled) on 60-62, but I guess the leafs are the same...

Does anybody know whether or not 60 Valiant leaf springs will interchange with 63 up A-body springs? Thanks in advance. HyperValiant |

I was sure the front segment was longer. Guess not. |

Yeah, sorry, I should've been more specific: there's a difference in the mount plate — pretty sure the '60-'63 mount is one style, and the '64-up mount is another — but the leaf stack itself will swap from any A-body to any other A-body. |

Thanks for the replys Fellas,the front mounts was the reason I was asking the question as they are angled and also boxed and actually look beefier than the 63 up mount but not sure if they are or not. Now to get a good set of springs and install my 8 1/4 Sure-Grip. Thanks again HyperValiant |
