On my Longhorn frame, which I think would be the same as a camper special leaf spring rear susp truck, there is only 3/8 difference in frame channel heighth according to these measurements. As Padresag posted his 4x4 3/4 ton frame is 8" high at 10" behind the front cab mount. My Longhorn frame is 7 5/8" From top of flange to bottom of flange 10" behind the front cab mount. So maybe there is an inch difference on the coil spring rear 3/4 ton trucks?
