Rear block specs

I need to replace the double stacked blocks in the rear of a 1979 F350 4x4 with a single 4" block for safety and legality reasons. Does anyone the size of the locating pin? That is how 4 wheel parts wholesale lists them. Either .5625 or .6875 is available. I'd like to get new springs with the proper arch but that will have to wait for more money to become available.....Thanks

79 was a big year for changes

NOTE: usually Vin# Build date/number DJ0001 is the cutoff.

It may be in this case.


Check yours

Maybe check on Jeff's Bronco graveyard site until someone comes along that knows.
