1 inch front coil spring spacer

[e_k_powell]

Anyone know the exact dimensions of the front coil springs and what the top spring perch and spring pad isolator looks like? I am trying to find an existing 1" spacer that might work or may go see if I can have my local offroad fabricator make a billet spacer. I am trying to get a little height in front back from weight that has been added and remove some of the 2" rake. Don't really want to mess with the Eibach springs as vehicle already barely fits in parking garage.

Following as I’d like just a little bump up

There is a west coast company that have designed just that bump. It’s for the upper front perch seat. They call it a leveling spacer it should be out later this week.

That would be nice. Please post more here if you get more details. I’ll keep my search going and talk with local shop also.

I corresponded with Shadowmarq. Next week they should get them in. 1.3" spacer of high durometer urethane that will set on top of the OEM spring isolator pad. $149.

Got the spacers from Shadowmarq in today. I’ll have to find some time and get them on. Should give about 1 1/4” upfront and get rid of at least half the factory rake and a little extra clearance for the larger tires without the risk of the 1.7” or 2.5” spring lift. Figured I would give this a try until a proper lift with adjustable CAs and properly sized shocks is available.

Be nice to see the end result, don’t plan on dropping the axel? And if so are you going to disconnect the driveshaft to prevent boot damage? Or are you going to compress the springs in place?

I droop the suspension as much as possible with everything attached as normal and use a spring ng compressor.

Excited to see how it goes.

I think you ditch the spring pad

 

[e_k_powell]

I think you ditch the spring pad

They say spacer then keep the OEM spring isolator pad between the spacer and the spring. We'll see. It will be a few weeks until I have time to do anything with this anyway.

Well keep us posted, I like this option, my option B would be to put in the factory winch springs.

 

[wolftimj]

Ordered these. Is there any potential issue using these, specifically with the top of the spring?

Finally got the spacers on. I like it. Still about 1/2” higher in rear to the top of wheel well arch compared to front, but sits more level and rides just like before. Driveline angles are fine. Still got over +1.5 caster.

For you to get the caster angle I assumed you had the alignment done after the installation. Did you check the track? I am curious as when we installed the 30mm (Euro Spec) Pro-lift kit with is about the same lift this provides in the front, we noticed the track was off as the track bar has not adjustment. I had a customer ask me about this set up this week and I recommended he hold off until we get the Metal Cloak adjustable track bars in stock in the next few weeks. Just a thought. Having the track off makes the truck a little scketchy over bumps at freeeway speeds.

Yes. Alignment done. Tracks nice and straight. Axle shifts only a tiny bit with this small 1.3” lift. I haven’t measured it but front may be off center by 1/8”. Not enough to worry about and visually you can’t see it. 2” or more lift will be more noticeable and either a track bar adjustment bracket or adjustable track bar justified. I think all is fine for this leveling spacer. I’m not going any higher. I have 1” of clearance into my parking garage at work.
