coil spacer question
« on: November 26, 2006, 02:24:09 PM »
i've been reading about people using coil spacers for a few inch lifts on there kick/trackers.
i've also heard this a really cheep and eazy way to lift it you lil' buggy.
people have changed the rear shock to a crown vic to compensate for the 2' spacer, what about the front struts?
so you chang to another strut? or mod it in some way?

Check out my topic here:

While it is my sale post for the spacers I make, it also has a bunch of useful info if you read through it. It will give you an idea of how much lift to expect from what height spacers, etc...
Had a cool sig pic till I changed the text... sigh...
