Dubnut Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 Short of finding another axle housing, does anyone know where I can find new perches? Or will I wind up fabbing one? Thanks. Crawled under truck the other day to check U-bolts and found this on the right side. https://i.ibb.co/0sqSCng/shackle-rear-1.jpg https://i.ibb.co/RvxwXpP/shackle-front-1.jpg Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 I've made them before so I could move the leaf springs on top of the axle. They are a part of the axle assembly and not sold separately. Type "leaf spring perch" into Amazon search. There's pages of them. https://www.amazon.ca/SRP-Weld-Leaf-Spring-Perch/dp/B007IIWEFG Quote Link to comment
Dubnut Posted October 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 Thanks Mike, I went looking through all the old posts and couldn't find anything. I appreciate the assist. Would cost a lot less than this and bags... https://www.fabquest.com/universal-pro-street-4-link-kit-271.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw8eOLBhC1ARIsAOzx5cGtSeiB0jMU3KuK17t8S9lWezHZUGgUI0-RB1qMiZNQMRffDI0mdIMaAt6TEALw_wcB Quote Link to comment
620slodat Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 Trailer construction uses them, if you have any suppliers in your area. I'm thinking about home made trailers, not travel trailers. Don Quote Link to comment
Dubnut Posted October 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 I had considered looking at the 4wd places, but figured I'd pay premium overkill.. I'll look into the trailer suppliers, thanks. Quote Link to comment
