I'm asking cause I'm pretty sure I have more than stock. I have 20 on the front axle ( 10 behind each wheel) and 32 on the rear (16 behind each wheel) could you get this from the factory? Does anyone else have so many? Stovebolter -- the Next Generation (I'm 20) 1941 Chevy 1/2-ton pickup "Lucy" In the Stovebolt Gallery More pix on Photobucket 1967 Ford Mustang - "Sally"

If they started sagging someone might have added extra leaves on yours. Richard 42 Chevy pickup 65 Chevy C10 Panel
