what are the differences of these two kits? i can't seem to notice aside from the 2.3 and 2,36 width.

also, what is the difference between the short style and long style? i'm guessing either ride or payload capability.

would these be the correct u-bolts? http://www.summitracing.com/search/M...eyword=u+bolts

i put in the selector that my block was 2". i forgot what the stock block height is and guessed. the options were 1.5", 2" and 3".
i'd rather not use a block regardless of how much i don't use it offroad. i've heard too many horror stories and would like to avoid it as much as possible.

if it's possible to do without and leave what is already on my truck, could i just order the 1.5" ones?

 

I have the long leaf procomp aal, it gave me like 2 inches of lift and it feels more bouncy in the rear

 

summit didn't seem to have those, where did you get them and how much?

also, how wide are our springs again?

 

I got mine on craigslist for $80. they are like 2.5 or something, Im not sure

 

those ubolts look kinda skinny compared to my ruff stuff ones i have sitting in a box

 

could be the pic. you gotta link to the ruffstuff ones?

ok, i was at the ruffstuff site and came across u-bolts for a 31 spline 8.8. so my question is even though it's an 8.8 does the spline count matter? i'm pretty sure that mine isn't a 31 but instead a 28. even though i know it's a 8.8.

(found my own link)

 

i honestly don't even remember which ones mine are but im pretty sure they're these
U bolt, 5/8" x 3 1/4" x 10" [UB325] - $13.25

EDIT

those are the ones i have i just checked order

and **** i didn't realized they were 31 spline when i bought them from someone. spline count does matter. fml

 

so spline count affects the axle diameter?

i'm also looking at the link and i'm guessing that the 5/8" is the thickness of the bolt, 3 1/4" is the diameter of the bend (or axle diameter) and 10" is the length from end to bend.

 

correct. 31 spline has a thicker tube. ugh im so pissed off right now lol

 

sorry dude. better now then when you have to replace and half the rear end is torn apart.

 

yeah thats the good thing. wont be til june too
