front spring specs
Anyone have front firebird spring specs?
Height, top and bottom diameter? Pics if ya have em.
I'm trying to make a lift kit, found some Jeep springs from a 05 liberty for the rear, but don't have dimensions for the fronts. Seeing as its a DD, pulling em isn't an option for a bit.
Thanks.
Also if anyone happens to know of other vehicles (trucks or SUV's, I guess) that have the same shape/upper and lower diameters that are taller, that would be really helpful.
Not lifting to "donk" it. Lifting to clear bigass mud tires and make an off roader. Top of my hatch lid sits at my lower chest, and I'm 6ft 2, but the front end is stock. Not good for mud clearance lol

Gonna bump with another question.
Does anyone know of front struts off other vehicles
That will fit/closely fit a third gen?
I need taller shocks, everything I find is either tiny, or the bottom mount is too narrow.
Im measuring 2.5" bolt hole to bolt hole, and 1 3/4 space where the knuckle goes.
Corolla is a no
Murano is a no
Sentra a no
Mustang is a no
Subie Forrester, impreza and outback ?????
Mazda rx7 no
Mitsubishi lancer EVO no? But not sure
Mercedes Vito ?????
Lancia anything ???
Bolt hole to bolt hole isn't a problem, that can be re drilled. Its the other dimension I need to fit..AND be at least 2" longer.
That. Or weld relocation brackets up
Edit: Honda ridge line looks promising. If Anyone has one, can you get those specs?
Thinking of just adding a tubular upper control arm and moving the shock point all together.
I do realize I'm barking..COMPLETELY up the wrong tree, and that I'm putting more money into a rusty turd than it'll ever be worth.
