auxillary spring and front bumper mount questions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have 2 questions I thought I could roll into one. First of all, I was wondering if my aux springs are stock. They look like a farmer got a hold of some old springs and metal plate. Also, when I bought this truck it was missing the bottom bolts on the bumper. Every frame I have looked at has the bottom rail bent up in the front to mount the bumper but as you can see mine is straight. Am I missing a bracket or something?

What year truck is that?
Looks like the front frame horns have been cut off.

They've definitely been cut off.
I'm not sure if the rear helper springs are aftermarket or home made.

well that is a little disappointing that they have been cut. Thanks for the help.

The auxillary springs look exactly like the pair I sold from a 68 3/4 ton truck. So...I think they are stock.
