Spring spacers Q was created by bertbuckie
Right.... I am still looking into spring spacers for a lift as moneys tight.
I have found a set on ebay which includes front and rear repossitioners but there 1 3/4"
I can only find rear repositioners elsewere including here.
Do you NEED the front ones? ( they look like box section with a hole through it )
I would prefer a 2" lift but cant find the front repositioners anywhere

Hi,
I am a little confused as you appear to switch between two different products in your question.
1. Spring spacers - these fit on the top of the springs and look like this.....
- I can get these for you for £94.33
2. Shock extenders/re-positioners - these fit on the shock absorbers. The rear ones look like this...
However, we do dot have front ones around at the moment, some prototypes should arrive with me next week.
So to do a lift with spring spacers adds up a bit as you need to look at shock spacers as well, unless you want to risk that your current shocks will cope with a bit more extension?
I think your best best for the cheapest lift is a body lift at present - see www.bigjimny.com/store/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=119

So those are spring spacers, you will need to consider the effect they will have on your shock absorbers as well
