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.

$145.00 each for a headlight, Ouch, that could feed 100 Ethiopians for a month...

It's one of the less expensive ones on eBay , I will look to see if I can find it, the threading on the fittings going into the rad was a bit sloppy as I recall but I put some sealant on them and they seem to be fine

Re: Head lights

I have them sitting on my bench right now waiting to be put in , I will post some pics of them, they were super fast at shipping and supplied a tracking number, very nice to deal with, would recommend them for there service so far, if they work as good as there service they will be excellent
