Butch,,,,
Are the dimensions you need on that link correct for your application ?
(1.5" diam, 2" length ? )
Do you have caltrac springs,,,or MP springs ( I assume they are MP given the link you provided) ,,,send me a PM....

So are they really of much benefit? I've had a new set sitting in a box for 6 years and didn't really know if they were worth installing or not (I can't remember why I bought them in the 1'st place...LOL)

I have Cal-Tracs with split mono's on my Challenger & made alum bushings for both the front & rear leaf spring eyelets on my car. Sorry, no pics though.

Their actual benefit is probably measured a couple numbers to the right of the decimal , but they do help.
I did changes to the front suspension at the same time as I did mine , so I have no real data to support this , but it definitely makes sense on paper.

Thanks for the replies. I'm kind of on the fence. Mancini has them for $39.00. I am looking for 60 ft improvement.
