would 73-87 rear 3/4t or 1t leaves ride horribly in my 70k20?
hey guys i'm trying to decide how to beef up the carrying capacity on my 70 k20 project truck and am leaning toward some 73-87 3/4 or 1 ton leaves and moving the rear hanger back 4 inches.
i'm assuming my truck is lighter and don't want it to bounce all over but i like the idea of 1 ton springs for towing a car hauler.i don't care to much about a smooth ride but i do want it to keep traction in 2wd going uphill on a steep dirt road since there are a lot of them around here. can anyone with one of these later trucks comment on the ride or somebody that knows frames advise on if the 1 ton springs might hold a dangerous amount of weight? i do want 56" springs of some kind but i'm unsure of which ones would be approriate. thanks,rick
