    Stepside wood opinions?

    Hey guys I'm cutting my own wood for my stepside and I can't figure out what I should do with the straps that go in the center.

    52" VS 56" Rear Leaf Springs

    I have a 75 C10 Stepside and I'm changing the rear leaf springs. When I went online and purchased them from SD Springs, they only listed the 52" with a 4 leaf spring pack like I currently have. I "assumed" mine were 52" as all of the 56" had many more leafs. Okay, I admit I'm an idiot for not...
