One of my coil springs has the middle-age droop. Anybody know the rating or how to determine the rating or who to contact to help? I understand GM put a coded tag on each spring & the rating could be deciphered from that, but no such tag on my springs.

The truck was converted to an ambulance when new. I'd like to know if it has an alternator or generator. Tag says 1117765-3E31.

I have a 63 chev panel converted to an ambulance when new. Mine has air shocks as well on rear. I am presuming we have different engines. I have the base 230 in mine. I will try to get pics before we go on holiday. Mine is the 1/2 ton short panel if yours is the same I can look at the coil springs . Is your droopy one front or back?


First time I saw this truck I said "That's the one!"
