I have kings and I think they are excellent , I rang kings direct an the guy was very knowledgable with the coil sierra's and very willing to give advise , the springs are even designed for each side to eliminate sagging on one corner like your experiencing now , I recommend them , but the springs that they recommend are only about 40mm lift not the 2 1/2 " your looking for , the guy said he will custom make them if required . Give them a call www.kingsprings.com

I have pedders raise springs in the front of my coily, they initially gave about 60mm lift. After about two years of abuse (with big winch on 6mm plate steel bumper hanging off the front) they have sagged back down about 30mm. I have recently packed them up using a 30mm packer in my custom coilover setup and they are working a treat. They are not hard springs and flex very nicely.

try taking em back mate, say u've had nothing but trouble with them, have had to have the fronts replaced twice, not happy with what they've provided and all that kinda stuff. kick up a stink (be assertive, but don't get abusive or aggressive). if they won't do it, tell them u'll go to the department of fair trading. take notes of when u've dealt with them, the complaints you have and all that kinda stuff. dept will tell u if u've got a chance...

u paid em to provide something, if it's not good enuf u should get ur money back.

can't guarantee it'll work, but worth a try :armsup:
