I used 58 chevy 3/4 ton pu springs for my `33 when I was building it, they were 12 leaves. I took out eight of them, had them rebushed to fit the `33, and tappered the foward spring eyes down to 1.75 from two inch to fit the `33 hangers in the front, then drill the new center pin in the spring perch 1/2 inch back to move it foward, all it cost me was for the rebushing of the spring eyes.
