I added 1" terraflex spacers in the rear ... So its ok now.. But you're right we should'nt have to do that !!!!!!

They sent me new coils ( got them this monday ) and I just learned that they found the problem with the coils and they will get the new ones in a couple weeks... I'm kind of mad that he didnt tell me they were working on new coils... I would've waited for the new ones ....

In my experience, the 4-door coils provided more lift (not MORE lift, just closer to the "advertised" amount of lift)...BUT, the rear coils still started sagging just like the 2-door coils did.....

That doesn't surprise me....and I've heard from one guy that went to RC and they put a set of those new coils on and it wasn't much different so he just stuck with the BB spacers instead (like me).

Couldn't wait for a set that worked, ordered a set of Teraflex rear coils, and once I swap them out I will send the defective ones back for a credit - they did send me another set but they were exactly the same - kind of funny after all this started they now offer a 60 day money back guarantee on all their lifts.

I like the 2.2 shocks so eventually I will also swap the front coils with Teraflex and I should be good to go for a while.
