Autofab Coil Buckets

Post by 24hours »

I’m looking for specs on the Autofab coil buckets. Could anyone with a set please pm me?

I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks

I have a pair with shock hoops which I'll fit to the F truck one day after rego. What do you need to know?

I’d love to know how tall the actual bucket is? From bottom of frame to top of spring. I’d also like to know the height of the shock mounting eyelet from the top of the coil mount?

When I have time, I'll measure them for you.

Thanks Rod! It’s exactly what I was looking for. I’m trying to figure out a way to have my cab/body sit lower AND get more up-travel like Eric’s SuperCab @Mxnmud on Insta. Terra Crew did a full video on his SuperCab. He dropped the body 3”.

No probs, Mate. Sorry I took so long.
Cheers.
