suspension and tire questions

Post by 52PLOWERWAGON »

can some one please give me dimensions for front and rear leaf springs
eye to eye is the main one I'm looking for

and does someone have u bolt dimensions


last weekend I realized my truck would sit about 4-6 inches higher if I had stiffer springs ,so I decided I need to add several leaves to each pack
for more ground clearance and tire clearance


and I think my truck would look amazing with 9.00x20 non directionals
will the stock axles handle this big of a tire

and I realize that would make the marginal brakes even sketchier

would a pinion mounted disk brake help any
Thanks,TRAVIS

If you have the TM's, the specs are listed. I don't have mine here at work, so I can't look right now. (I think in the Body and Power Train TM)
