Hey guys,

I currently have a 2" coil spacer up front and I am looking to get .75" to 1" more lift. My question is, can I go out and buy another spacer and put it on top of the 2" one or should I just stack a couple stock spring isolators on top (if so, how many?)? Or is it a bad idea all together? Thanks

 

Hmmmm what is the purpose of the needed lift?!?!?

 

the heep sits about that much lower in the front so I'd like to make it more level. And I figure that even though I'm gonna be cutting the fenders in the near future, it rubs pretty bad with the backspacing on the rims (no sway bars).

 

No you can not stack Coil spacers..

 

Yea i wouldnt do it even if it was a trail rig......

 

I am curious why not stack coil spacers?

 

When you stack them it gives a "flex point" and there meant to be seated. if there not when you flex out you are more likely to dislodge a coil and spacer. That and I know in MI it's not legal... Some other states it might be the same.

 

So I guess you aren't support to run a coil spacer and isolator together as well?

 

you can..

but 1" on top of a 2" is making things worse, not better.

 

it goes along the same line as welding coil springs together, its just not safe, at least to carry my fiance and unborn child in

 

So is it bad to run a factory isolator with a poly spacer? I understand the logic behind it just curious why all 2" BB tell you to keep the stock rubber isolator if it's dangerous to stack spacers..

 

i've been running a 2 inch stacked with a 1 inch with no isolator for a couple years now, with absolutely no flexing problems. mind you it's only a trail rig, but i drive it to the trails. and i'm running a longarm kit. never have they even separated in the slightest. they are held in by the bumpstop tube.

it's not recommended by most, but for a temp fix, i can tell you it's fine.

and no, it's nothing like welding two coil springs together. lol.

i now have 8 inch coils and one 2 inch spacer going in.

flame on

 

No your not suppose to run the isolator and BB spacer..

 

I ran a 2.25" spacer with 3.5" coils for a while... So it is done, just a bad idea to stack spacers..

 

oh, and mine was with R.E. 5.5 inch coils too. with a 2" and 1" spacers.
