quarkz is on a distinguished road
Default Seattle 5 Ton parts yards

Any of you west side folk have any leads on parts yards that may have 5 Ton front spring kits? I have a 5 ton that ready for them now. And I am heading to seattle tomorrow for a DR.s appt.

Or for those in the know, are there other trucks (Civi or comercial) that I might look to for similiar type springs?

I figure that there are a lot of garbage, cement, school buses or semi's out there that will have the right springs, it finding the plate that goes on the axle and the correct size to mate to the frame.

Also I expect that there may be more articulation with the military when it comes to off road.

I have a set of donor deuce springs, but I have heard rumors of axle wrap during take off.

Also what are the 200A2 trailer springs rated for? I have one of those, but the axle plate is the problem again.

Thanx for any info.

Off to take pics because we all know
