    If you are going to do it this way, use strut top spacers instead.
    Something like these below.

    For the rear, the shocks will be too short to have any effective downward travel if you put a coil spacer in.
    I would recommend longer rear shocks & proper raised coils. It doesn't have to be HD to raise it.

    Regards, Jason.
    Has anyone put any of these on to there rig? I was looking at these to match the front lift to the rear.(level out the car)
    The price is a bit steep. Cant see why you couldn't get a toolmaker to whip a spacer up for a carton. As this sits between car body and strut assembly it shouldn't have any impact on strut travel for top out or cylinder crush.

      How much do you need to lift for it to level out? Here's an option for a small lift http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread...-Strut-spacers

        I'm considering these to bring the front back up a little. The rears shocks were upgraded to KYB's for towing (previous owner) but the front is stock and with a ARB bar it's sagging more and more.
        2007 GXL V6 - ARB Bullbar with LED lights, snorkel, extractors, 2 1/4" dual exhaust, K&N filter, dimpled/slotted rotors, headrest dvd players, Ebay Satnav/reverse camera, GME 3100TX, Tigerz11 Side awning on custom brackets with Maxtrax mounts, 300W Invertor, ARB Underbody protection, Lightbar and STZ 265/70 tyres.
        Wish list in order I'll get them: Sliders, 2" lift, E-locker, Winch bar with winch.
