    J BODY LEAF SPRINGS

    They're older and trying to get rid of the springs because they're too heavy for them at their age. I'm almost tempted to buy a 2nd set of springs and hoard them

    REAR SWAP

    Link: Rear end question Flange to flange, drum to drum, and perch to perch DID NOT CHANGE in 1980 for FMJs What allegedly changed was tread to tread, 1" total or 1/2" difference on each side. In the end this is irrelevant to an axle bolting on, the key measurements are the same for ALL FMJs

    Raybestos, StopTech & Centric - bankrupt
