I recommend adding Air Lift Lock-N-Lift # AL52440 spacer kit to the AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL60811 as it lets you add air springs to your lifted vehicle. It will work with vehicles with up to a 4 inch lift.

The diameter of the spring 5-3/8 inches and 4 1/2 inches tall.

I added an instruction link for you as well.
