Just wondering how long they are supposed to be and more importantly where do you drill the hole?

Make em 3 ft long, use 3/8× 1/2 flat stock aluminum.
drill hole at 7 inches..use stainless nut, washers and nylock
Cut drill and grind notches....will set the heaviest DL springs with ease
Lasts a long time...lighter and more leverage than the 2ft steel ones.
Also stouter than the Sleepy creek pair above.
Wrap handles in bright yellow electrical tape to stand out.
