Lifting a 69-75 Travelall,..
Gang,
Been there, done that. Dodge 3/4T springs fit perfect. Bushings
and all. They even look like IH used Dodge springs, though I never
suggested that. I found a set of 3/4T springs rear: from a 73 1110
pickup and fronts from a 70 pickup, and they give about 6" of total
lift from a sagged out 1/2 1975 Travelall. If you do the rears only,
you'll want caster shims in the front, 2.5 will work, 4 deg is better.
When I put the 3/4Tin front I plan to keep the shims in there, since
the driveline angle is fine (The front shaft is so long anyway) and I
like the highway cruising ability with the increased caster. My 1/2T
truck sits easily as tall if not taller than a 3/4T TA.
New bushings and 3/4T springs and you're good. New shocks are
needed too!
