For all you jokers running the All-Pro springs, what width are they? I plan on running the 4" lift, Long travel flavor on my SAS, and need to know how wide to make the hangers. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Thanks!

I think they are ~2-3/8" like stock... plus bushings equals... I dunno, 2-3/4"?

I used 3.5", 1/4" wall square tube for hangers, and use washers to take up the space if/when I need to for springs/bushings narrower than 3".

If you build them narrower, it might be hard to bend them out to fit wider spring/bushings later... (like 44044's, etc.) assuming you build them beefy, that is. <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

Thanks Erik! I'll probably use 3.5" then, and just shim as necessary... <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

I'm thinking I'll go beefy for sure! <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

Shims, that's what I meant. Not washers, that would be hoaky. <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

I figgered you'd be going beefy... you're skipping the birf's and going to the 44 after all. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

The springs with bushings are 2 3/4". The hanger we use has an inside measurment of 2 3/4".

Yeah, *shims* (fancy washers!) <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Yes, skip steps one and three!! Go straight to 44!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Forget the 44, go for a 60! I have seen so many 44's fail I lost count long ago.
