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.

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?

What dealer did you get them from?

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