    I cant remember what they off hand. I have to look at my drawings.

    I can rotate them 180 degrees and add a second set of holes to make them compatible.

    I think that a 650 to 675ppi would be more appropriate. When racing, I had a little better lap times with the 600 than the 750. Like they were just too stiff for the tires grip. With the weight of the truck. By all means, try them though. Your truck may very well be lighter, and they may make a positive difference.

    Compared to my Bimmer, those 750's are Cadillac. Lol.

    It could also be that the front and rear were too far unbalanced, with their spring rates. XR leaf springs and those coil springs. Just a simple set of observations, and not thorough testing.

    As long as there is enough clearance through the control arms for a 4" diameter spring we should be good.

    I can configure the lower mount to any size we need

    Nice!!
    I can’t imagine the stock 4x4 coilovers not being at least 4 inch diameter springs.

    So been in contact with @easts1d3 . Since prerunner is 2 in longer he said he can get strut 2in longer and redrill bolt pattern for mount . @TRON @Torspd you think xrunner spec strut would work. Extended length ? Will try to measure mine today . Soon as I, we find something :spending:

    @easts1d3 whats the thickness of mount ?

    It did on mine. When Sitting Sic was around, I got their QA1 XR coilovers. Had to use a minimum 600 ppi spring, to get it to stay off of the bump stops. First truck that we tested it on was a PreRunner. It evolved from there. I believe that the springs used were linear 2.5" diameter springs. Let me see what I have in my photo history.

    My picture is too blurry for the springs, unfortunately.
