coil spacers

I have a 91 Bronco XLT and I was wondering if coil spacers are made for my coil springs?

Sure they are made but, if you add a spacer to lift the front end you will limit the amount of spring compression and feel as if you are bottoming out. They could create a slamming situation that is very tough on your front end. Want a higher front end by just an inch or two? Go with a variable rate heavy duty coil spring. I use them on my older (78) Bronco which is equipped with a snow plow and the work great. Or .... go with a full lift kit that comes with springs and brackets.

Do you have the spacers? If so, where did you get them? I already have a big lift, but want to go higher. I'm thinking of relocating the coil towers, but maybe the spacers would do the trick too?

Thanks,

I just ordered some for my 92' F-150 4x4 for about $100.00. I have'nt got them yet but I'll post a message when I get them installed.

Keep in mind that if you lift the front via new coils or spacers, you will throw off the camber. Most lift kits contain the new brackets for the axle pivots to correct the camber. This is a $160 - $200 procedure at most tire places.
