Hey Carl, with the SumoSprings Solo kits like the part # SSF-302-47 the minimum clearance between the spring and the vehicle axle is 1/2 inch. Normal clearance is between 1/2 inch and 1 inch.

@JamesonC I need to know the total amount of clearance required to install these. My rear coil springs are shorter than stock.
