Please do not misconstrue this as a classified post, you will see why in a second.

I have a set of 800 series front springs out of a 5 ton. Are these a wanted item like the front 2.5 ton springs for bobbing? I tried searching but didn't find anything. Anyway, is there a use for them, or should I scrap them? Thanks

If you scrap, I SURE could use a spring purch ( the part that goes on top of the axle and under the spring)

I have all the suspension parts. U bolts, springs, top and bottom plates. I bought a bunch of axles and one of the fronts still had the front springs on them. I knew the 2.5 ton guys used them for bobbing so I wondered if the 5 ton guys do. Thanks for all the replies and pms.

I'd rather not start a thread and this looked like as good a place as any to ask.

<y 72' M813A1 w/w front spring profile is flat and I have about 1" between it and snubber(s). Rides OK. Is this normal of should there be more arch? Thanks.

Front springs have no arch. Mine is the same...nice and flat.
