It’s based on our rear Simple Swap kits, but set up specifically for the front axle. The cast-in-place perch on the driver’s side requires a unique U-bolt plate, so we include one for that side and a standard plate for the tube side. You also only need a single spring perch, which is included. To handle articulation, we supply our curved shock brackets so your shocks can ride up the C without binding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit is complete with three U-bolts (two standard 3.25\" and one wider 3.875\"), hardware, and everything else you’ll need to mount 2.5\" leaf springs. The cast-side U-bolt plate is cut from 1\/2\" steel for extra strength, and the curved shock brackets are made to last. Works with most GM Dana 60 front axles, and some Dodge D60s as well — give us a call if you’re working with a Dodge axle to confirm fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart Number: R1157\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits GM Dana 60 front axles (some Dodge D60 compatibility)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor 2.5\" wide leaf springs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes special cast-side U-bolt plate (1\/2\" steel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurved shock brackets (1.5\" ID) for better articulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty 5\/8\" U-bolts with hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelding required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Leaf spring plates for 2.5\" springs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Perch for 3.25\" axle tube \/ 2.5\" wide spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Shock brackets (1.5\" ID)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) U-bolts – 10\" x 5\/8\" x 3.25\" with hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) U-bolt – 10\" x 5\/8\" x 3.875\" with hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eRecommended Upgrades\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDana 60 Differential Cover – Adds strength and protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2\" x 3\" Shock Bracket Bolts – Correct hardware for shock install\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNote\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWelding required.
