So i was out messing with my wifes pickup today removing the rear leafs. I had one side removed and remembered that i had some f150 springgs so i grabbed it and placed it on the spring pearch and bolted it to the 6 inch shackle and it looks like i can just move the spring hangers forward a few inches and not have to change my wheelbase or shackle location. my question is has anyone used this method of installing these springs ? I left the other side of the axle bolted to the stock leaf spring so i know the axle didn't move. it just seems like swapping these f150 springs on using this method might work and take way less time. no measuring. will it work?

good writeup for the chevy 63's http://www.nwtoys.com/content/135-ch...-swap-faq.html

i would search threads on the f150 spring swap...

maybe someone that has done this will chime in.
