Nope. Not worth the effort for companies when a 1" dropped spring will do it much easier and cheaper.

2" and 2 1/2" are the most common. I think someone made a 3" at one time but not sure if anymore.

I like using the 2 1/2 drop spindles and as little drop on the spring as I can to get the truck at the height I want. Gives me the most spring travel and the best ride.
