I have a newly refurbished pair of 1/2 - 3/4 ton front springs and wondering if its possible to install them on my 1 ton. Truck is in storage for a time and I cant get to it to take a proper look. I know they are 1/4 inch narrower and I am not overly worried about the capacity rating more the fit.

I was thinking that, like the rear 3/4 ton vs 1 ton I could make a spacer.

Anyone done that, got any input otherwise I will be refurbishing the proper ones which are on it, buy new bushings and hangers etc.


My truck is a 1 Ton GMC 1951

Thanks Everyone!

The springs will be too short
By a couple few inches
There is another thread on the forum about this very topic

Anyone want to buy some refurbished front springs in UK?
