G'day everone, was just wondering since i have access to heaps of austlon (mind spelling) was wondering with a little machining could be made into the ideal spring spacer to any desired height. Have access to a lathe as well. i thought that they may be good due to their strength and ease of workability. What is everyone's thought, would spring ends wear it down, thus better of buying other plastic sytle ones or just scrap the idea totally. Am interested in just a little more lift from my existing 2" lift coils or do i just get longer coils and avoid any hassles.

Cheers
