It's called a Bag Over Leaf spring system. We're fabricating our own because no one makes a kit for '67-'72 trucks that I could find. Found this pic on the net and a fabbing we went. The bags are Firestone Ride-Rite from Ride Tech. This is the one I'm using. It specs out well for my app. https://www.ridetech.com/products/co...-tapered-rear/
I had already bought weld on brackets, so I'm re-working them to fit. The Ride Tech website has upper brackets here-

Didn't see any lower ones. Just google Bag over leaf spring suspension, lots of pics come up. Good Luck.
