yeah...that's the part.
was thinking maybe i was supposed to NOT install that...and put the sping right in the "cup".
thanks....
gonna try to get measurements on the fronts tomorrow....got another 100mi trip tonight...see if they settled at all.

did a quick check in the parking lot today...pretty even ground...
i think i had almost a full tank of gas the first day...1/4 now
dr-r= 26.5" (675mm)
ps-r= 26.5" (675mm)
dr-f= 26.5" (675mm)
ps-f= 26.375" (670mm)
this is after 2 weeks, and 150mi of driving
while i'm pretty happy that the height to the fender is nearly identical, i still feel the rear is a bit lower than the front in overall look. i'm thinking i my try a 1/4" spacer on the back.
i can use all the ground clearance i can get with my TDs...and i think it will give just enough boost to the rear that it will look better when filled with gas.
