Looks like it’s supported by the frame not the axle tube so I don’t think that’s the amount it gives. They sell these things at the parts store as lift kits.

JMO413 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 That is a special kind of special. I'm guessing they probably spentt more than a pair of lift springs would have cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yes, but I've never heard of or seen them sold as lift kits. Both types of those inserts have been sold for years as cheap ways to "restore" sagging coil springs. I can remember seeing that &^$%* in the old J.C. Whitney catalog when I was still in high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
