A few guys had good things to say about .Stengel Brothers.

Here is another site, you need to measure the U-bolt though.

Let's get the measurements for future reference.



A= 9/16
B= 3-1/2" (9.25 rear) , ---> Let's get this measurement for the 8.25 rear, (Same maybe??).
C= 7-1/2"Stock measurement, and then you add to it.
. .....Simply add 1 inch for 1" block, add 2 inch for 2" blocks.

 

I'm surprised that there isn't a posting somewhere on here telling us all what to buy.
if I ever get it figured out, I'll post links to everything.

I need to get it done though because my headlights are shining up too far.

 

Here is stock 9-1/4"
A= 1/2"
B= 3-1/2"
C= 7-1/2"

With 2" Block FYI - Tapper goes forward (shorter in front, taller in rear - to keep drive angle that same)

A= 1/2"
B= 3-1/2"
C = 9-1/2"

That is a glow stick hanging from my brake line - could not find my flash light lol

Eimer123 - Where did you get the block?

I'll also be ordering the U-bolts from Stengles.

 

I bought mine on eBay.

Note, if you buy cast iron ones you will need to cut off the stock stud welded to the top of the axle that goes through the leaf springs. I suggest that you take a c clamp and put the around the leafs to keep them together while you unbolt the old leafs.
