I was thinking about getting a daystar 2 inch coil spring spacer kit. but my coil springs are shot and i was wondering if it would be easier to just install the longer coil springs instead of getting the spacers. but i heard if you put in longer coil springs you may only get like an inch of lift and i definently want the 2 inches. any opinions?

Thanks
 
I heard coils are the way to go. Im about to take some off mine and post em up for sale. 4" RC coils for $100 plus shipping. Upgrading to 6" coils. Let me know if you want em.

x2.... Polyurethane spacers wont last long at all. I had them do the same thing. Use washers, or get leveling springs.
