Title: Looking for parts (unsure for placement of post)
Post by: howlinwolf on June 07, 2009, 02:43:27 pm

I need a leaf spring mount cheap for a 78 4x4 chevrolet 1/2 ton. also, i just replaced the clutch, and its now a coil spring instead of the diaphragm clutch. I think i need a longer rod for the clutch? any input is great thanks

You went from a bellville spring to a borg & beck style pressure plate? Why?

didnt know there was a huge difference. just needed a clutch and thats what they had. the truck is a daily driver until my beretta gets fixed.

guess i made a bad choice? ill keep that in mind and when its time for a change ill go back.

You're looking for a front spring hanger correct? There was one in the classifieds. If you can't find it then post a wanted to buy. I believe I have a pair still as well as I'm sure there are others that can help you out. You'll need to post your dimensions though because there are differences in the hangers.
