I don't think I was clear when I said the lower control arm is down lower than parallel to the ground. I should have said the ball joint is pointed up; it needs a longer or stiffer spring to lower it, thus raising the truck. I'll post pictures below showing where it (the ball joint is now and where it would be with the truck at the height I want it to be. I want the truck to be higher. My three step plan is moving it up about 1-1/2" with the springs, another 1-1/2 with the raised spindles I ordered from Fatman, and another inch or so with 26" or 27" tall tires (current tires are just over 24") So, it's ideal to have the lower control arm parallel to the ground, but if I fudge just a little I can get my 1-1/2". First picture below is where it is now with my #350 springs, and the control arm is going downhill a little to the pivot point. Second one is with the spindle and body where I would like them to be. So, the question is what spring will make that happen. I'll get the front end weight and distances from lower control arm pivot to spring and tire centers tomorrow. Also, length of spring at the height I want.
