Easy Lift...
Has anyone ever tryed the twist in spring boosters at autozone. There real cheap and gave my front end a heck of alittle lift that diffantly made the front set alot higher by about 1.5-2 inches. I was wondering if they could hurt anything. They wedge into your spring spreading out the coils. It seems to me the tires wont rub as bad on the inside tread so much because it lifted all the sag out of the front end. Well anyway very pleased in this 10.00 product. And if anyone wants to just completely level the front with the back on a 2wd then thats the way to do it. It also boost your stiffness in the front which is nice. Now with the 31 inch tires and the rear air shocks with the new nitorgen shocks for the front, it should set higher on the rear and even better performance in the front. Good product to buy also. As far as I can tell.

wait. so you mean to say that your coils spread out? im confused. if its what i talking about... i can see why its only $10.... first off, it might have knocked your alignment off a little. and by little, i mean minute if any. altering suspension in any way puts wear and tear on the stock components. i'd say just go with new coil springs that lift it ~2" and to never trust autozone for your aftermarket specialists.... lol.

No Pain, No Pain!
I have seen these rubber "spring spacers" before. In fact, they used to use something very similar in NASCAR to change the "spring rate" on the car to give it better traction. I don't see where they can hurt any more than the 2" leveling-lift spacers that attach to the top of the coils. If you are happy, and the alignment is okay, then you should be okay.

Well all can say is if anything it fixed my alignment because it was wearing the inside of my tire hard core until I put them coil spring boosters in and now it seems like it rubs evenly. Plus it shows how big the 31s are under the fender wells which I like and I wanted it to level the truck out and if anything it raised the front too high which is good because I'm lifting the rear anyways. I think there worth it and they seems to never fall out considering I hit some potholes that vibrated the truck so badly and bounced it around so much that I thought one would have fallen out but there still there in the exact same space.
