Are these the right height
I ordered these 4 inch drop springs and although correct part number on them they just look too short for a 4 inch drop. They are 9 inches high. Can anyone tell me for sure if they are the right ones for a 4 inch drop. It amy be a whie before I install them so want to make sure they are correct while I can still return them if not correct.

Re: Are these the right height
Sorry for the long delay in response to this. Those are the exact springs I put in the back of my 67 for a 4" drop. Photo below. Mine will obviously drop a bit more when I put the bed on it but this appears about right with the 2.5" drop in front that hasn't totally settled out just yet.
I also purchased some shortened bump stops for the rear and there is just a hair over 3.5" of clearance between the stop and the axle housing.

Re: Are these the right height
Standard height spring in front with 2-1/2" drop spindle. I wanted to keep the steering geometry as close to stock as possible. I've not driven my truck yet and I expect the front to settle a bit more since the springs are new as well.
I am runnin 255/70-15 all the way around.
