Hey guys great to be back online again :lol:

Um quick question about coil spring spacers i am considering gettin 4 of them to give the krooer a bit more lift than what its got, sagged original suspension and i dont have enuff to lash out on new suspension just yet

So my question is have you guys used them? Whats the Pros and Cons

any help greatly appreciated

Thanks

my dad has 15mm in front and 30 mm ones in rear and so far there has been no cons. This is all the lift he has and it is running 33 mtr's and they dont hit in the guards.
I think it took about 2-3 hours to fit(mucking around getting springs out without spring clamps)
But they have worked good
hope this helps

I put em in as the coils work ace (80 Series thats shopping trolly/weekend family tourer/day drive truck) doing every day tasks so didn't want to compromise the by changing coils. 30mm spacers lifted it up a bit without changing the ride but the shocks ended up being too short.
I'd do it but check the shockers for correct length.

50 bucks is a bit steep, i thought they were
closer to 30 bucks each.
