Leaf Spring Center Pin Size 2nd gen

What is the size of the leaf center pin on stock gen 2 leaf springs, I made some 1" blocks as a temporary leveling solution, till I can get new springs. I need to know what size hole/pin to use.

 

I believe it's a 3/8" bolt, Buy it longer than you need and cut off the rest.

 

I was not planning on changing pin/bolt. I am going to have a hole on the top side of the block that accepts the spring pin, and a pin on the lower side that sits in the spring perch.

 

I follow. So yea the bolt is 3/8" iirc, but you will need to know the head size for that. Best bet is to pull apart your pack (or find someone else that has theirs apart) and measure the accepting hole in the axle perch.

 

That's why I was asking. Hopefully some knows the dimensions of the pin and hole. I would like to have the blocks complete before I take the truck apart...

 

i know this is and old thread, but on my third gen tonight i measured the hole @ 0.60" so a bolt with a half inch head should work.
