Thank you sir. I'm just worried about the door spacing more than anything. I don't want it to spread on me after I cut them out. I'm just doing a rebar across the door opening about half way up on each side.

I do have to replace the drivers side inner piece behind the rocker but not the tubes.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
