coil spacer or lift spring........

[goobs]

here's my experience, spacers were a PITA to install, they kept wanting to move around and so did the spring, but gave a close to factory ride.
the springs went in easier but stiffened up the ride, which actually kinda worked out because i ended up taking the sway bar off and it was perfect, just slowed down on the "fast" corners.

When I had my 7.5 Fabtech lift I removed the sway bar and it helped a bunch and smoothed out the ride. I planned on doing that again with this lift..

Just hope I don't regret lifting again!

Hate to jack your thread but do you scrub with 285s?

Anybody running wheel spacers/adapters with the lift spindles, if so what size spacer?

Thinking about taking my 1 1/2" spacers off the rear and putting them in front with 2 " in the rear... want a wider stance..

Just until I get my new wheels.


( Edit ) Are the 88-98 2wd trucks lug or hub centric.....

I would recommend using the coil springs over spacers.
