No problem,
It's just that your other post said "then you'll have a 3" lift, in the rear anyway, so I wanted to make sure I could do the same thing in the front.

Thanks a million!

I like this idear.. ::)

Can you tell me what size pipe you used?

Or better yet, can you tell me what the ID is of the coils?

I can't get to my truck to measure until later in the week, and I'd like to have these made by the time I go up there again.

I have some 3.5" OD pipe I was hoping would work.

Hmm...Not enough meat on the pipe to turn down on the lathe...guess I have some more dumpster diving to do. ;)

Hey Hey!  My post is back!  By the way, welcome to the boards Jo-Jo!  

So front and rear are both the same 3-3/8"?  So maybe some 3-1/4"?  What dia did you use Wild?  Just curious how tight of a fit I need...

My spacers are tight, they can't
fall out, and need to be turned
to remove, I never did measure
the tubing, it fit first try, so I used it

Badly, no, stress a little, but it's not
the coil spring spacers that stress CVs
it's the strut spacer, thats what controls
the down travel, and a 3" strut spacer is
a little too long, I say 2-3/4" to be safe
