The rear of my truck is sitting low because of the extra weight, and I'm working on raising the rear of my truck back to factory height (thread HERE). Could I get a measurement between the factory 3" bump stop and the bump stop platform on the factory 4 5/8" spring block? The distance between the bump stop and the platform on my truck is only 2 1/2".

My 2000 measures 5" empty.

Thanks fschiola. I wonder if there were any differences between the 2000 and my 1997. What's your '97 measure at, or is not stock?

fschiola

Well it was gone when I first posted, then it was back, now it's gone again. I'll check it before it gets out of the yard tomorrow and repost the results.

I don't mean to be too much trouble, but could you also measure your bumpstop height and the height of the blocks too. I want to make sure that nothing has been changed from how it is supposed to be. Thanks.

fschiola

No trouble. The height of the spring blocks on my 2000 was 4 5/8". I'll let you know on my 1997 when it gets back.

fschiola

The height of the spring block on my 1997 is 4 5/8". The bumpstop height is 3.5" but has an empty horse trailer hooked to it now. I would guess it would be close to 5" without the trailer.

Thanks for the measurements.
