Technical Front spring question.

33 pickup front spring lower plate. Is this the correct one? Spring measures 1-3/4 wide but the plate has tangs that are 2-1/4 wide. Will this create movement or allow spring to slide back and forth?

 

wrong plate the correct one the u bolts will be snug on the sides of the spring exactly 1-3/4 in

 

Thanks!
The search begins...

 

That plate probably came on a big BB truck as it has a wider spring.

 

The u bolts go around crossmember also, so there is no way they have a 1 3/4" span cross is atleast .125 material plus maybe .125 clearance on each side so the span is probably 2 1/4" or little more

 

2-3/4 " C-C on the holes.
2-1/4 O-O on crossmember

 

Thanks!
My plate is definitely wrong it's measuring 3 3/8 center to center.
Guess I'll be ordering up a new plate.

 

Spring width plus both sides of the cross member.
