Would you like your '13 or '14 Shocks stiffened ?

Just got Mr Gasket 1287's. Wow these are pretty big. 4" middle diameter and 6" outside. Outside height is 1 5/8" and a claimed 1" lift. I don't think these are going to fit. Anyone have the dimensions of the Moose Shock Spring Wedges or others you have used?
Thanks.

Unless you plan on returning them, cut off about a 1" wide piece and see if it goes in. If so, add 2 or 3 more and test ride. Add more if you want a firmer ride. Use lots of soapy water, simple green, etc. Shouldn't have any problem.

Thanks guys. Still trying to decide if I want to return and order the other ones or give these a go.

Just an update. Got a hold of the correct spacers finally and installed them. Used the Simple Green spray technique and just pushed them on. No need to lift the spyder. Started with one end of the spacer and once that snapped into place I just kept working it on as I pushed it along the spring. Only took a couple of minutes to get both on and in place.
They have helped. Still would like more so sometime in the future I will probably go with the Elka shocks. But for now it is nice having the extra stiffness for cornering.
Use the Moose spacer. The Mr Gasket one was over twice the size and probably wouldn't have worked. Never tried it though. Needed to send it back. I didn't think they wanted Simple Green all over their product when I returned it. Go figure.
