i dont see a 3" lift spring on the marlin site...

[color:"blue"]Me neither, I think All-Pro has them [/color]

does anyone make a 2" front lift spring?

[color:"blue"]OME makes 2" [/color]

oh, and is the marlin kit set up to use '79-'85 stock-length front springs? so any front lift spring will work?

[color:"blue"]Mounted one way it will use the stock length springs, turn it 180 for the longer springs [/color]

sorry for the ignorance here, just wanna make sure.

[color:"blue"]Thats how you learn, ask questions. The only stupid question is the one that is not asked [/color]
