Can you measure the distance from the bottom of the trucks frame to the bottom of the Aeon rubber spring?

PT,
I got 'em! I'll get a measurement tomorrow and post it.

Thanks Mike, I really appreciate it!

Here is a pic of my timbrens installed without the spacer:

I am running the 6,000lb springs. Part number DR2500CA.

I have another part #, listed on the bottom of the application list for wrecker applications. They appear to be much shorter than the ones posted by surfram, as they are just one segment, whereas his are two. If you have any questions about these, let me know.

I have about 1 1/4" from the bottom of the Aeon spring to the top of the axle after installing my Carli minipacks and a 1" spacer from Timbren. Before the new suspension (stock 3500) I had 1" of space from the bottom of the Aeon spring and the top of the axle without the 1" Timbren spacer. This is the DR3500CA kit. Hope this helps. I am trying to devise a quick release system to switch back and forth between the stock bump stops and the Timbrens.

Mine are about 1 inch same as surfram's pic above.

Thanks for the info guys, but what I really need is the length of the entire Timbren assembly (top of mount to bottom of spring), or the distance from the trucks frame (not axle) to the bottom of the rubber spring.

I have different leaf springs so the clearance measurement doesn't do me any good. But I really appreciate the effort!

I just re-read your post and duh, learned to read boy . I will have to measure mine when I get home as they are off the truck and sitting in the garage for the winter.

For my 2500, The spring itself is 5 1/8". With the mounting bracket is ~6 1/4" and the spacer would add about another 1".

Total = about 7 1/4" - 7 1/2" with the spacer.

ptgarcia

Cool, that should be good. I'll let you guys know if I need more info.....

Thats what I got too 7 1/4" with the 1" spacer. The best place I found to buy them was Michigan Truck Spring http://www.truckspring.com/VSearchRe...&pt=189&fv=584

Thanks for the verification.

I bought a set of Timbrens for my Titan from Michigan Truck Spring. They definitely seem to have the best deal on them.

Should have mentioned you were about to buy.

Stengal bros. price match with free shipping. $169 OTD

BTW - I ordered the 3600# instead of the 6000# based on user experience reported here.

ptgarcia

No, I didn't buy anything recently. I bought the Timbrens for my Titan back in '04.

I saw Stengal Bros. had them for a good price also, but thought they were closer to $199. I'll have to go back to there site if I do buy.
