I have a '63 GMC 4x4 3/4 ton pickup and need a pair of front leaf springs. Is there a source for them, or do I need to go to a spring shop to have them made?

most est spring shops can make them for you. they may not be able to supply the pins ,bushings and shackle kits though. you may have to shop around for them, but you can get them LM have the best price for the shackle kits about $50.00 less than the others. The shackle pins are threaded in.64-66 are their own sizes(springs) which vary from others.

Benz Spring in Portland, Oregon has made several sets of factory spec 4x4 leaf springs, U bolts, Correct washers and nuts for my various 1957 through 1966 4x4 projects over the years and I have been Completely Satisfied with every set.

They come ready to install.

Freight has become pretty significant here lately though.

Good Luck, 'Got pix of your truck?
