I just purchased a 41 suburban from Utah and it is being shipped. The prior owner stated the right rear leaf spring is sagging and might be broken.

My question is, are the rear leaf springs from a 1/2 ton the same and will they fit as replacements.

Thanks

I can't speak for the Art Deco trucks, but they are the same for the advance design trucks. The 1947/1953 frames are basically the same, with only a front sway bar added on the panels and suburban.

It looks like the 1/2 ton rear springs from 1936 through 1946 are the same.

From what I've seen, pretty sure they are the same. And, post some photos when you get it, we all would like to see!!!!!!
