    The prior owner of my 62 pickup lowered the front by moving the leaf springs to underneath the axle. I'd like to change it back so they're on top for a number of reasons. Here are pictures of the leaf spring and axle arrangement, and of the brackets at the back of the spring.

    Would anyone be willing to post similar pictures, but of their stock set up so I know how it should be set up when I change it back? I know I'll probably need shorter shocks when I do this.
