'65 Suburban Suspension ???'s

I went and looked at a 1965 GMC Suburban today. I'm thinking about buying it . The thing that got me was the rear suspension. My '66 Suburban has coils, this one had leaf packs. Is that factory?

Re: '65 Suburban Suspension ???'s

the basic rule...
gmcs were stock with leafs, with coils as an option.
chevys were stock with coils with leafs as an option.
The optioned trucks are out there , but pretty rare.
