Hey everybody, would like some idea what axle is installed if possible from the VIN. It has two sets of leaves in the back. Was that factory? Rides like a logging truck without some weight in back.
Edit. See that I posted this in the unibody forum, that nobody ever reads. Oh well. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/p...ctureid=151972 |

An auxillary spring (1 leaf) was optional for both. The rear springs are the same 1957/67 F100 2WD, so there are other leaf spring packs that could be used. |
