Any ideas? The only company I can find with 2" lift coils is Springtech. Are they worth it? Does anyone else make them?

Thanks.

There might be others that sell them but they are the same coils. I saw some being sold by canuck motorsports.

It looks like they are Springtech as well.

How much do you want to spend is teh question? Many companies make them but springtech is by far the cheapest

I'm not really on a budget but would like to keep it under $200. I'm looking at going with the coils due to the Chevy 2wd "lean" that I've already corrected with a spacer on the driver's side. I've looked at about all the manufacturer's websites that I can think of and keep coming up empty handed.

I could go with the springtech spacers on the bottom and leave the spacer on the top. That just doesn't seem like the best thing to do.

Any idea on when you are planning on putting those coils in? I would like to know your impressions.

I have heard of people running the springtech coils with no problems. You wont be able to put another set of spacers in the bottom without new control arms, and honestly it still dont sound like a good idea,

That's the kind of info I'm looking for. I was just having trouble finding feedback from people running their coils. Everyone either has a spacer or spindles. I guess I'll have to give them a shot and write a review for everyone else that has been wondering the same thing.

I have CST spring/control arm kit and the springs ride really nice, even with a spacer installed with them to "load" them. I would say with them loaded they feel like a mix between stock and stock with a 2" spacer, they arnt too soft, and arnt too stiff, I'd say its perfect!

I have ridden in a truck with the springtech springs and they ride a little stiff, sort of like a stock coil with a spacer and blown shocks. Some people like that ride, I didnt mind it but would trade it all day long for way mine rides now.

Thanks for the input. It looks like I'll be going the springtech route. I don't mind a firmer ride. My bilstein HDs do a pretty good job of that already. Plus the firmness helps keep my undercarriage away from the rocks that I hit every so often on the ranch. That's what I'm trying to avoid. One of these days I'm going to bend more than a subframe connector...
