What I did was remove the entire spring, the unbolted the upper rubber 'cone' the bolts to the upper portion of the frame rail. 3" is nice and wide/stable fitting. remove the shock absorber so the trailing arm can be pushed down to allow the bottom of the spring to be reinserted. Took me about 45min for the first side, and 30 for the second. 1 inch was a bit too high for my taste so I used a cutoff wheel to trim off 1/4 inch to make just right by my eye. I'll post some pick here soon.
