Overload Spring Stops

I would like to install some overload springs on my '93. I use it as my tow vehicle and it squats real bad when I put any load at all on it. I have springs, I just need the over load brackets. It appears to me that the frame is already pre-drilled. It has 3 holes in the area the auxiliary spring perch should be mounted.

Where can i get these perches? Does somebody have a part number? Do they have a rubber insert like the newer ones?

It would be much easier to buy a new set of air bags for the rear of the truck...

The truck will ride much nicer as well if you keep them aired up just enough to take the weight off of the springs.


Next modification I'm doing for my truck.

I've got some if you decide to stick with the factory overloads. I'll have to see if I can dig them up from out of my parts box. They need new inserts if those are obtainable.
