I just measured them and they are 7" from the ground to the bottom of the spring pack (looking at them if they're upside down). They are definitely heavy and seem to be heavy duty/stiff from what I remember compared to the Hotchkis springs.
The problem with the Hotchkis springs is that they're too soft for a heavy A-body like mine. I know they were originally designed off of Shannon Hudson's Valiant which I'm assuming was about 200-300 lbs lighter than my Dart (my guess for being a Valiant and not having as beafy as a cage as mine). I'm a 200 lbs guy, if I have a passenger I have a minimum of 100 lbs in the passenger seat, and when I have 100 lbs in the trunk my car may weigh about 4000 lbs. My tires rubbed bad on the tops of the inner fenders a couple times when I went up mountain roads or even autocrossed (no offset shackles and 255/40/18 tires). So, I pounded out the fenders (which helped) and was hoping to install these to reduce the travel. Plus, these add a higher spring rate so race car. But I do plan on getting wider wheels and tires in the future now that I have offset shackles.
