Does anyone have a front shock laying around? Or maybe you already have this dimension... I was wanting to make some aluminum shims/sleeves (instead of the conduit nuts) to use for my clevis lift. I know someone posted a quick drawing of one a year or so ago. But I searched and can't find it. So, if someone can measure the OD of the clevis end our front shocks, I would be greatly appreciative. Just need the shock OD, so I know what ID to make my sleeves. I'd get under mine and measure it myself, but it is all wet and nasty here.

Well the conduit nuts are like 2 .25 or so
I have some specially cut ones someone sent me to try and they are 2.185 I.D. are are too snug, so somewhere in between would get you in the ball park. O.D. is about 3 7/8


Duh :shock: wait just remembered that I have an extra set of front shocks out there. :roll: :roll: I think with what I measured ( of course I do not measure down to 2.2476593 ) but the 2.25 lets it slide over the shock easliy. Going smaller would require that you have a slot in one side of it of course
