Front leaf spring hangers

[RedneckTexan]

I've been lookin at the F-250 4x4 hiboy front axle, front leaf hangers, and I noticed something, they look almost identical to the rear axle, rear f100 leaf hangers. are they the same part(s)? and if so, could I use the f100 rear springs and hangers for F-250 4x4 front springs and hangers?

Well, i'm not sure how to explain it, but I'll let the pic do the talkin....



The "flexible" part at the top looks like it can be adapted to work just like the hiboy front hanger, IDK, what do you think?

Those are shackles, not spring hangers. The spring hanger is riveted to the frame. The highboy front shackles are made from 3/8" steel flatbar. I doubt the F-100 rear shackles are the same thing, but maybe.
