I would like the as built dimension between the top of the spring to the bottom of the frame. That would be without the bumper assembly. If I can get this dimension from someone that has a mono leaf in a 235 powered 3100 I would appreciate it. I am setting up the rear axle and I don't want to create any obvious problems, that may result from being lower. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 1,464 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 1,464 | I don't have my mono's on the truck right now but the springs
are 3/4" thick at the axle attachment point and will lower your
frame down between 2 - 3". That should get you real close.
Your U-bolts will add about 3/8" to the thickness of the springs. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 | I have my mono's installed on the frame and all. What I am trying to find out is the running clearance in the front with the truck completely assembled. With this dimension, I can get the rear end close to where it will be, and check for any clearance problems. | | |
