Smile New to the forum and needing some guidance.

Hello all! My name is Jim, I own 4 Chevy trucks: 1967 K10 Short bed/Step side with a 292 L6, (2) 1958 Chevy Apache's one 3600 NAPCO 4x4, and one 3100, and a 1979 Cheyenne 4x4. Finding parts seems to be a challenge and it is here that I need some guidance. I need a set of rear leaf springs for my 67' K10, apparently they do not make them and they are no longer available on the open market. Does anyone have any suggestion as to where I might be able to locate a set in serviceable condition?

Thanks,

Jim

Son in law aquired a 71. Parts we needed to get it running I got local autozone, or like the gas tank from rockauto. Springs, I am fortunate to have a spring manufacturing here. You can change leaf springs to whatever you want, take the six, make it a three etc.
