Requires: New body (DT) only. Sold as a front pair. Lift range 0 to 2.6in, set by snap-ring groove. Retailer describes it as levelling the truck using the FACTORY COIL SPRINGS, so this is a coil-spring truck part; the listing did not state whether factory air suspension trucks are excluded and that was NOT verified this pass.

A pair of front struts that replace the factory units and let you pick your own front ride height, anywhere from stock up to about 2.6 inches, by moving a snap ring into a different groove before you install them.

why this one — Unlike a spacer, this actually replaces the damper, so you get a firmer monotube shock and the lift in one part instead of stacking a spacer on tired factory struts. It is also the cheapest way to get adjustable height on a DT. The catch is that a strut is a strut: at 2.6 inches you are running the front suspension near the top of its travel with stock upper control arms, so a taller setting really wants arms added later.
