Title: Any substitutes for the Rear Leaf Spring Bumper? 76' K10
Post by: 76Texan on December 14, 2022, 10:13:01 pm

Hey Folks,

Back on the forum and working on my K10.
I cannot find the rear leaf spring bumpers.

The shops have been out for some time. Any subs?

You really only need them if you're going to be loading it down but Summit Racing has a few different styles.

Won't be loading it down at all. Thanks for that!

You bet.  Yeah, if you measure the distance between the frame and the axle it'll be probably 7-8".  I've done a flip so I have about 3-4" and haven't hit- yet.
