i know i have seen this out there before just not sure where. i have a rustys spacer lift and my stock springs are shot. i meen the front coils are allmost touching coil to coil. i know my struts are fine so i was thinking about getting rustys 2inch springs for some more lift and to help my problem. i dont have too much to spend so thats whay im thinking of going this route. any input is good thanx

This would work, but they would probably start sagging again, since they are the same spring rate as stock, just longer.

I would look into OME, Im sure you expected that answer, haha.

is it essential to you that you reuse the spacer?

ya that would work or if your only needing it to last 6 months why not go find some OEM coils again, there are several people on here that still have theirs, I just threw mine away bc I couldnt give them away
