I haven't tried it so I don't know for sure. My Ranger has 2.5" springs, so I think chances are good.

An easy way to figure its a 31 spline is measure the circumference with a string, if a caliper isn't available.
Mine was very roughly 10.5" (maybe a bit less). I divided that with pi (~3.14) and got about 3.34 as my diam.
Very rough but you will know for sure at least.

Looks good. Were you able to find the FRT pointers on the blocks?

Ya I saw them

If you can see in the picture of the blocks and U bolts you will see what I was talking about the PINK and BLUE stamped

Good news also the park brake wasnt cut it just wasnt pulled all the way out. So I dont haveto swap those over
