Hey AWD! Standard AE/CRC springs will not fit on the stock VBC center shock, as the ID of those springs isn't big enough to fit over the VBC shock body.

Is the front kingpin 3.0 or 3.3 mm in diameter?
Mine measure just over 3 mm, right around 3.05-3.08 mm.

What is the "inside" length of the front kingpin? The length of the equal signs in this Mona Lisa of a picture. (|======|
The distance from the inside of the bottom collar to the bottom of the button-head screw (at the top of the kingpin) measures right at 28.6 mm on both of my kingpins. I think this is just a hair longer than the AE kingpins (from clip to clip.)

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
