3 of the 4 spring hangers on the back of my Chevy 1.5 ton are worn/whopped out.

My first thought is to figure out something that would cross-over because this design went on forever, but can they be refurbished the original with new bushings? Cheaper to just make something else work? What is the best avenue of attack for this?

Thanks much.

Charlie,
See if you can find the number FZ-2548-50 cast into one of the hangers. If so, the chevy parts catalog confirms that all four hangers are alike and that they fit ALL sizes of Chevys for 1929-1932. This seems odd to me but I am just reporting what the catalog says. The actual Chevy part number is 356935. You could set up an eBay search for the part number and also look for a frame left over from a rod project. Let me know if I can help.

On a 1928 dump truck we worked on we welded a solid plug into the worn out hole and then bored the plug to the correct size.

Yeah I thought about that as well. And this is how we gather campfire stories!
Thanks Coilover
