  • In this episode, Aaron installs “Vintage Truck and 4x4’s” all new Dentside Ford truck front leaf spring brackets. This is a new product for 2024 that was a collaboration between Dentside Depot and Vintage Truck and 4x4 to ensure all 77.5-79 Ford trucks are able to be fully restored with a better front leaf spring bracket set. Installation includes the front hanger and the rear hanger assembly pivots with shackles. Note, the newest version of the kit now also includes the vertical frame bolt for the front hangers (not shown in the video). As explained in the video, these parts are a significant upgrade over the factory parts. Due to the very precise fitment, frames that have powder coating or heavy coatings of POR15 will require minor surface adjustments (sanding of metal etc.) to the front brackets to ensure a correct fit. This is a must upgrade for any worn out old brackets or even just when installing a lift kit. Here are the ebay links (highboy and lowboy differ) for the product and the Instagram page for Vintage Truck and 4x4:

    Exciting week here at DD, finished up a 3-4 month collaboration with "Vintage Truck and 4x4" creating new front and rear leaf spring brackets and hangers specifically for lowboys (77.5-79). Just finished installing the first set of final products and they fit great! These are available now on Ebay in the links provided in the description above!

    I've watched most of your videos and like your content. I see you taken the front cab mount brackets off. Is that a replacement piece? I have a 78 Bronco and need to replace mine.

    Would I need longer shackles if installing the super duty springs from early 2000’s?

    • @DentsideDepot
      @DentsideDepot  2 місяці тому

      This kit is designed for stock fitting springs. I do not believe super duty springs will fit...

      ​@DentsideDepot they do fit. larger bolt up front. if double wrap spring lower spring needs cut down. and yes new 5.75" rear (in center) shackles are needed . inch for inch match to lowboy lift springs. slight shaving of bushings bushings.

      They all have sagged out by now really. you can get them re-arched by a spring company or just replace them with a set of skyjackers

      No, the F150s have a radius arm, so it is completely different.
