Default Down at the farm.....

From what we have seen on Fords and Chev the rear hangers for the rear axle/springs all seem to be the same BUT the front hangers on Fords for the front axle is different than the Chev..... Ford has a fancy curved hooked hanger at the back end of the front spring. And even Fords CMP produced with GM front and rear axles retained the Ford hangers and Ford shock absorbers......

Gets even more complicated... the GM HUP, which is almost a CMP, has fancy rear curved front axle mounts BUT different than the Ford.......

Then of course there were production run modification done on at least Chev CMPs where the front spring mount of the front axle is also different....some have sliding feature while earlier ones have different pin yoke arrangement similar to the front rear spring.....

All of which I probably can supply pictures.....

Cheers
