Title: Spring Hangers? Bit off more than I can chew!
Post by: KY..Rob on April 30, 2010, 09:36:53 pm

Hey Guy's and Gal's, I was under my 85 K10 today and noticed some peeling on the drivers side spring hanger. I started peeling off some old paint and frame saver, before I was done the whole darn thing pretty much decentergrated in my hands :'( Has any one replaced these? and are they available aftermarket wise, or do I need a donor? it's the hanger close to the cab, and is riveted to the frame. Has anyone had these fail and drop there rear Axel?

The more I tear into this Beast, The more I find wrong! But hey I did find a $20 Dollar rust free door..WOOHOO!

Rob..

Thanks Chris! I was reading an old post from a couple years ago, and there was a guy name josh" That said he had a part number for the hangers to get them from the dealer? But he never gave the part number on the thread. I think you even carried them at one time? Do you have any resources to get them along with the backing plates?

Thanks,
Rob..
