1.79 is the height on the 829s.

I guess I am in the same boat with my lifters. I bought the bushed 829B sportsmans several years ago and planned on having them rebuilt and here we are..... whiney

They are freaking $1200 now too.

I have over 600 passes on them at 800lb spring pressure so I can vouch for them as far as quality, but not being able to have them rebuilt now sucks.
