Looking for front leaf springs...
I have a 47 1/2 ton that someone torched the front leaf springs to lower it.. Does anyone have a set around they don't need?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Snowking, is the frame a '42-'47? If you do start pulling parts off it, would you be willing to part with the front spring brackets? One of my brackets has a slotted hole from the heavy use and lack of maintenance from the PO.
Packrat, I also have been looking for the front springs because mine sag really bad. I was told here that the F1 from I think '48-'50 shared the same front springs, so maybe you can find a set of those easier? They do make new replacements for the F1 if you are interested in going that route, I even saw some at JC Whitney dot com :-)
Hope this helps out some.

). So if you part out your frame let me know if the front brackets have a tight round hole 
. I don't need them anywhere in the near future, I just haven't been getting the time I need to progress on this project. I am going to post an ad soon, if I remember, because I know a lot of guys are putting the IFS on thier trucks.Here is the thread I started on my bracket, you can see my issue
