leveling the rear??
« on: September 15, 2007, 10:52:11 PM »
i have 2" spacers in front and rear, and the back looks funny as its a bit lower than the front, anyone have any ideas how to fix this?? 4 door coils or ive also heard of stacking the stock isolator pads up, but this wont give me an inch which is what i would like.

If you have 2" spacers in the front that means you have about 2.5" of lift in the front. What you actually need is a 1.5" spacer in the front. It's all about geometry..

4 door coils should put you right back to level...a buddy of mine did the same thing..

But remember that you have to think about longer shocks and a rear a-arm spacer or you won't have any articulation
