coil spacers

my bronco already has a 6" suspension lift installed. a long time ago i bought a pair of those rubber/plastic coil spring spacers. would it be all right to install these with the current lift? i have those adjustable alignment bushings installed for my camber.

Your call i am fine with mostly stock hieght. just a add a leaf an taller front springs. Never had an issue off road. But there are a few dents a lift would have helped avoid, but WTF that is why I bought a truck anyway.

Personally I'm not a big fan of coil spacers, they make the spring put more pressure where the spacer is, and I don't like having to worry about wheether something is going to break. I would take your spring buckets off the frame, and drill new holes and lower the bracket like 2" or whatever you want.
