I'm not sure about that. I'm in Tulsa for the week and my truck is in Houston. I'll get back to you about that. But I want to say they are pigtail springs.

single cab, v8 springs. you might want to cut a little less then. i know it dropped me more then my old 2" drop springs but maybe closer to 2.5". fender height is 29.5" i believe.
