1967 4 inch leaf spring with a spring over

[rabid]

Nice rig, mine looked that nice years ago and it's time to repaint everything again. I don't need to go so I don't wheel to hard I just would love to get an extra inch to put on 35 inch tires. I could fit them now I think but I really don't want to cut fenders..ideas?

Thanks! looks better from 10 feet.

are the rear quarters cut? I think you will need to cut them to run 35's without hitting.
I ran 33's and 34x9.5's on mine for years on a 4" lift.

Not cut yet. I have 33x10.50r15 on now. I want 35x10.50. I should have about 2inches of room

Gonna try my best before I cut the fenders. I have a 3speed turbo 400 transfer so I need the tire overdrive

Normal, as in what? Installed and under a load, or laying on the floor of the shop?


@germaneighter has a thread going about some measurements.

The ones I posted are not old and flat and they measure the same as an OME medium front spring pack.

Also, in case anyone cares, 70-series front leaves are the same length as 40/45-series from 1984-1998.
