    I need to move the rear end on top of the springs on a 59 apache. Who sells the narrow weld on spring perches to relocate the mounting position?

    i know you guys don't have this shop up there, but the local spring shop here, Champiopn Spring has them. They're actually for trailer so they're pretty narrow. If you can't find a spring shop, Tractor Supply should have them, too.

    Do it the HAMB way--make'em. Its not hard to do. You can make'em quicker than ordering them and waiting for them to get to you.

    Thanks folks. I will check it out. The ones speedway sells are only for the wide springs I think.

    For 3 bucks a piece I think I can afford to get some. Besides, I am too lazy to make them.

    We did OldCarPilot's 8" from Northern Tool with trailer parts.

    Pads, U bolts, lower plate I think it was all around $20

    Yeah I got trailer parts on my truck. [​IMG]
    I've gotten them from Northern, Tractor Supply, Agri Supply, and a local parts house. About $5 a pair....
