what are the dimensions of these springs before install and what did you end up with after install?

the 2000 lbs springs are about 4 inches in diameter by 8 inches high as also the 1500 lbs ones...the 2000 lbs springs added on the rear of a 4000 pound car (1969 dodge charger with tired saggy leaf springs) added about 2 inches in ride height but were too hard of a ride to use ...The 1500 lbs springs are perfect with 1 1/2 inch ride height increase and great ride with no spring noise...

Not sure of dimensions, they fit any truck that has leaf springs only. You will have to jack the vehicle up from the bumper, then bolt springs in place. It adds another ton to carrying . The vehicle doesn't bounce as much when going over rough roads.

Anyone ever get an actual dimension of the mounting pads? Tight on space to mount and want to get the exact size. Thanks.

I'm not sure about your particular strut sizes, sorry. I will say that I have a 96 accord and the rear struts on mine were too long for the springs supplied. front fit well, but the rear would have completely bottom out had I installed them. had to cut the old from springs and put them on the rear with the supplied coil over for them to work, but they do what they're supposed to. keep in mind that these are just universal springs and coilovers, some modification might be required. jus installed them 2 days ago, and so far so good. wasn't completely thrilled that they said it fit when it didn't on the rear, but for the money i paid I was expecting worse, lol. good luck to you!

I dont know the exact measurement but compared side by side with factory shocks on my 2004 sporty are almost identical despite the length..hope this helped

it is a 2.25 inch drop in the front, and a 2.00 inch drop in the rear. i liked the drop but the red paint on the springs didnt last very long. they started to flake off. if you do purchase the springs, make sure you order new strut bearing plates and bearings. you have to reuse the stock mounting hardware.

Mine are only 3/4" wide....and they work great. I can't think of why the product description says that. Maybe they are including something else in that measurement. The only other measurements that you need to take into consideration is the total length of the whole spring and the way you plan on connecting it to what your using it for.

Just the 4 springs. You use all the other factory pieces. Im thinking I saw that they fit all years. Mine is an rspec as well and that shouldn't make a difference.

I think you are correct! From new factory springs this would probably be a 3.5" lift. From my 22 year sagging springs i did get around 6" of lift. I have had them on for around 4 months and they have not sagged. Also I used a 3.5" lift on the front of my jeep and this rear lift is close to level. I did not need to install spacers though any higher in the rear and i would have needed them.

Unfortunately I've thrown the boxes away some time ago. The springs shipped individually, each one wrapped in plastic and sent by itself. The shocks and hardware speed in one box, roughly 24" long, 18" wide and 10" deep. This is just a guess by memory. Hope it helps.

You get a total of 4 springs. I put mine on a Ford Ranger to help with trailer sag. I got the added benefit of an improved overall ride from them. Installation was only about 30 minutes!

The same size as the ones on my machine. The landing struts did not fit my machine. They were a hole off.

Go online to Houzersink.com (mfg website) website and download the installation instructions for this model - it will show all of the exact dimensions.

I don't know the "original" length of the spring, for it's installed now. However.... I think I know the problem you are having. My installation process was as follows: Installed the front of the spring first, then put the "U" clamps on ( lose fit.. double check the line-up on the hole & pin under the plate) then install the end of the spring in back. The last step is a challenge to say the least. Ended up using pinch (crow) bars with the help of a neighbor. Overall... very pleased with the quality of the product, but it was a bitch to install !!! Stick with it, and good luck.

The assembly directions mentioned using the "longer" springs first, but mine were all the same on the 7X10. Overall spring length with hooks is 7". Just the spring coil is .875x5". Spring wire is .125 diameter (Looks like typical high-carbon-steel material) and all were coated with a light electroplating. My strings have not yet rusted, but I keep them lubricated to minimize the typical squeaking.

4 springs.2 for the front of the axle and 2 for the back. All you need is the wrench to put them on with.

Because of the characteristics of the springs, diameter, k, length, I would be hesitant to use anything but OEM replacements to assure it continues to operate correctly. If you feel lucky you can grab all of the data, wire diameter, length at rest, stretched length and force required to stretch, hook end dimensions, etc. and go to an industrial supply store. You may find you will have to cut to length, apply heat to bend the ends and properly quench. I've made springs for other devices in this manner and would return to the OEM if possible just to save the PITA factor.
