Those just expand the spring in one place placing stress on that area and causing the other coils to compress more causing spring bind and faster degrading of coil strength. I used a set of rubber ones on my old 72 cutlass in the front when i had some too big of tires on it, made front end a little stiffer, enough to prevent rubbing, but not good on the springs. Some people use them to lower vehicle by pinching coil together. |

You often find those things for sale in the trailer section of automotive stores. I guess the idea is to give your truck's rear coil springs extra height while towing. Kind of a "band aid" solution. |
