leaf springs on a 2wd c10
is it possible to replace the front coil springs on a c10 with a set of leaf springs off of a blazer? if so what all would be needed to do this?

To put leaf springs in the front of a 2wd you would have to cut out the A-arms and put in a straight axle. Why would you want to do that?

If you are going to all that bother, why not just get a 4X4?

Yes it can be done. You will need everything from the 4wd truck to make the conversion. Your going to need the spring hangers, shackle mounts, steering box, etc.....
