Shocks and Leaf springs on 1948-9 Chevy Panel truck

1948 Chevrolet PANEL
May 20th, 2012 02:27:47 am, posted by Larry the Woodson

I have original lateral shocks on 1949 Panel Chevy 1/2 ton.......cost is about the same to replace them with modern vertical upgrade kits and shocks.    Everything else is original.

2. Go with replacement leaf springs after 63 years or seek out modern upgrade? As is it is an original panel not a street panel in any way. Drives/rides like a tank on a roler coaster as is. Looking for your experience in this critical stage of repar.





Thanks for you time and effort to help me and my baby......Larry
