    I've got 2" leafs on my ECJ5. I want to order some 2" spring hangers from a '76 and up. The tech section shows that the leafs were different on the front and rear:

    The Quadratec site is showing a single part number for front and rear hangers '76-86, as if the springs were the same. Anyone own a '76+ that can confirm/deny this? Just need to know if the spring hangers, not the shackles, are the same front and rear. Thanks.

    The main eye hangers are the same front and rear. The shackle hangers are different sizes front and rear.

    The difference is in the size of the bushings that go in the main eye of the front springs.
