72!




Depends on how much work you want to do. I'm sure with some work a 60-70's car tilt would fit in the location.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Look for old(70-78) RVs in the yard. I’ve happened upon quite a few over the years, and all were in very good shape and were tight.
You’ll have to modify the end shaft and move the wiring connector, but there are plenty of threads on the subject here.

The boxy RVs from the 70s-80s. Move the NSS and put the flat to round turn signal adapter on and you’re done.
Grab the HD front sway bar while you are there and take a peek underneath for Gear Vendors overdrive.
