Does anyone have the exact dimension of the diameter of a spring spacer that they have?

Thanks much!

i am afraid to ask if you are serious. you are speaking in tongues once again. yes i am looking for the diameter of what the spacer would have to be. around 4"?

thanks

I think it's 4", but go to rovertym's website to find out for sure, just look under suspension- spring spacer...they sell them pretty cheap also I believe.

I didn't see a close up of the fronts when finished. What does the shock relocation plate do?
And is this the same on the D2?

The relocation plate moves the shock mounting position the same as before the spacer. Otherwise the shock will be extended an inch, thus losing 1" of downward travel.

With the relocator, you'll have the same uptravel and downtravel.

DI and DII front spacers cannot be interchanged because the DI has a stud mount whereas the DII uses a cross-bolt(?) mount. Anyway, they are different. The rears are the same, though.
