Hi Everybody
I finally got "Howard Knapp" a 1953 Chevy 1 ton I purchased last winter into the spot in the garage where we can work on it...first order is to get it to roll safely. The rear main leaf spring is broken on one side, there is also another set of helper leafs over the top of the main stack.
I wont be loading this thing with a "ton" of weight so I am wondering will a lighter set of springs (maybe 1/2 ton) fit on this truck? without a ton of modifications I am hoping.
Also can I lose the extra set of helper springs without any issues to the handling of the truck???
Any insight would be a wonderful thing.
