1967 K20 Rear Spring Hanger Help
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone!

Well, I have hit a bit of a snag in my restoration project. It looks like the rear spring hangers on the back of the frame at some point were tweaked pretty good. They were removed and had a plate welded on the back of them and then bolted back on. My original plan was to clean them up and use new grade 8 hardware to reattach them, but I found that on the driver side of the frame the hanger is bent a bit and actually dips outward towards the driver's side of the truck. This twists the spring a bit. I was hoping to replace both hangers but I am not sure where to look for replacement parts. Does anyone know where I can find replacements?

Here are some pictures showing what I am talking about.

You might want to try a company in Penna. called ESPO Springsnthings. They had the rear leaf spring bracket for my 66 K-10. Real nice people. Good luck.
