I am thinking of a 30MM from a F250 but I don't have Blocks between my axles and springs.
Is the fact that I am 2" lower going to make the Bar not fit?
Thanks

I don't see why it would, but I guess it depends on how you got 2 inches lower... so spill it

I think the worst thing you might find is that the ends of the bar point down slightly from parallel with the frame due to your removing the 2" blocks from the spring packs. Not a huge deal and you would still feel the benefits from the bar. You could have the end links shortened by a welder if you want or find a set from a two wheel drive rig as they don't have those blocks you took off. I fabbed up longer beefier end links for my old style Hellwig after I did my modded spring swap and gained 4" of lift, my bar ends are level with the frame now.

Cool! Be sure to get everything associated with it, all the bolts and brackets and such.

Seems high, especially if the bed is already removed. I would skip it, first post up the location of this yard so we can all make a mad dash for it "Rat Race" style though

I will be surprised if that's the price when I go to pay but even if it's $4 a piece it will be under $50

I would assume any rear that shares the same body as ours. The frame isn't exactly the same as ours but the basics are the same the rest of the way through and since this doesn't go on the frame it should be fine. Someone will give you good hard numbers though
