4" of spring thickness
4" for axle and pad 6" block 1" minimum for the nut 15 inches does not sound so bad, though I'm not a huge fan of 6" blocks. Try a local spring shop (big trucks like dump trucks) they can custom make nearly anything. They won't be cheap though, as much as double the cost of the ones you get in "block kits" in catalogs. |

Check out Carrier Spring. They're pretty cheap and they custom make everything to your specs from military grade stuff.
