Did you get the ones with the spring cups, or are you going coil over?

Either way, they are easy to install, just be careful when taking the spring in or out.

im already running full MM coilovers so i figured i might as well spend the extra $50 on the tubular ones.

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.

let us know how it goes. I want a set as well. i am really debating a full tubular front suspension, but that may be overkill for a DD.

oH.....then the install will be simple. Simply unbolt the ball joints and the bushing bolts, drop them out, and you in!! Hopefully the inner metal dowl isn't seized to the bolts. That sucks when that happens.

i dont think it would be too much for a daily driver, i have a stock k member but other than that im running mostly tubular stuff, it makes it a bit stiff but its nice

the weight lost is well worth it. DnD Tubular front end soon to come to my 95 when I get around to it.

I've had them for the last 10,000 miles (daily driver). Ride comfort is great. Really lowers the friction in the front suspension.

Let me know how well they work with the stock K-member. For the people running coil overs, will a 9" wheel clear them with room?
