My 1971 K20 came from the factory with the G60 AUXILIARY SPRING, which is the overload or helper spring with spring perches. It has a spacer block between the main spring pack and the overloads.

Funny thing is, the front overload spring perches are bolted upside down in order to get it to align along the main spring bracket that is rivited to the frame.
