I had the ring but no legs. So we simply made legs out of scaffold poles. and mounted the ring at what looked a nice hieght. Remember the legs extend way down the back of the cab, so leave at a length that you can adjust to your preferences at any time in the future..

Are they the same length as 5 ton legs?

The rear cab legs on mine are 55 1/4 inches long - the right front leg is 62 3/4 long is this helps.
Zout thanks for the info. Is that measured from the top of the arm or the bottom? I've got a set of legs that came off a non deuce vehicle. Two are 49" to the bottom of the arm, 54 1/2" to the top. The third is 57" to the bottom, 62 to the top. I'm trying to make sure they will work on a Deuce. I have them in the classified's here and don't want to sell something that's wrong.

That is from bottom of the tube to the top of the tube itself.
I do have extra room on the bottoms of each - but I would not go much shorter because you also have the interior brace for support to contend with. But also realize mine did not come with the ring and legs - it was part of a trade and I just made it all work and fabbed some of it together - Ron with his wrecker came down on a Sat and helped with the "lift" - all hail RON - worked perfect.
