stock 64 K10 4x4 suspension?
I've included some pics here, to see if y'all can recall if your stock 63-66 k10 suspension looked the same?
specifically the hangars/brackets... My 64 k10 4x4 suspension specs: (will add more info as I get it) rear: -52" long x 2.5" wide leaf springs -supporting a factory optioned corp 12 bolt version 4 carrier with 3.73 gears. NOTE: I'm also running Roadmaster Active Suspension Kit, (for reducing wheel hop and enhanced towing)

yes, the coil spring helper thing are the Roadmasters... which, if you tow max capacity weight, or haul in the bed significant weight, are pretty damned awesome... So I'm still trying to pin down ProComp / Rancho / Tuff Country as to how and why they cannot be bothered to make a set of leaf springs for the 63-66 K10... it seems absurd to me, seeing as we've all been building these trucks for nearly 60 years!
