Coil Spacers

Post by Tjaart »

I want to know what you guys think about this:

What benefits can one expect from installing something like this? :helpsign: , if any benefit at all. :think:

I've got 2" OME fitted already, so it might be worth a look. Some help please? :helpsign:

Coil spacers are an easy cheap way to lift a 4x4,but two things to consider are that you must change the shocks as the OEM shocks will be to short and the other thing is that you should lower the bump stop's as you could damage the coils when they get fully compressed.The problem with spacers is that you dont get better wheel travel :think:
