the xer cam has a lift of .581 those springs only have a max lift of .600
thats not alot of room to play. have you notice a ticking coming from your ride farm boy?
running that close to max is asking for trouble.
i think you should have .050 to play with.

having a nice cushion between tolerances is always a smart idea. my 231/237 is gonna be topped by PP gold duals as well....not takin any chances whatsoever.
