Default Full Traction 3" HD springs

I'm getting ready to switch out my 3" springs for the 3" HD springs due to the 2"s of sag I have since I installed the Pure Jeep front stubby and the Warn Powerplant. I currently have a 3/4" coil spring spacer. For those that have these springs. Is anyone also using a coil spacer or just the HD spring alone?

Does it sit level now? Or does it still drop in the front?

I've got the HD springs, and WoL suggested I put spacers in the rear now because it's so heavy with the racks,etc. that it's actually lower than the front (and I don't have a powerplant), so I don't think you'll have a problem at all.

As a matter of fact, I do believe you left a set in the spare parts department? Are they spoken for?

Will the HD springs ride a lot stiffer than say putting in the spacers?

Puddlz, who are you kidding? At your age we all know you've got some SAG!

Sorry Clackey don't mean to hijack, besides that comment I have nothing to contribute here.

I faced the same desision and installed the HD coils without a spacer. I'm glad I did -- the HD coils don't need it. All that's left to do now is add air bags to the rear coils... :-)
