I noticed while installing my restored front axle assy into my truck yesterday that top portion of the shock support plates doesn't sit really flush with the underside of the axle. Looks like an extra U bolt washer is dying to fit in between.
My '52 has a washer between the shock mount and the axle. This is a flat washer that appears to be a little over 1/8" thick. My U bolt nuts did not have any lock washers.
