I'm assuming it may have raised it more than 2" as I found out when buying rotor pads it was considered "Heavy Duty" front end.

Unfortunately I did not have enough clearance on the front bump stops because of the 8.1 big block engine. The original 3/4 ton springs were sagging a LOT.
I ordered the springs from O'Reilly's and they had three different choices, light duty, medium duty, and heavy duty. I chose the medium duty ones.
I got started on the passengers side today but I did not get it done. I will finish it up tomorrow.
