For coil spacers (I assume what you are asking about), check the shock length and see if they are long enough. Also, spacers are OK as long as the springs are in decent shape (aside from the sagging):

I think it depends on your application. I wanted to retain stock ride (smooth) so I went with spacers. I think the replacement coils are stiffer (from what I've read, anyhow). Mine is a '90 Runner 2wd, and I was told yesterday that they don't make a 1.5" longer shock in the Runner configuration (loop/stem) from Gabriel. I was specifically looking for airshocks to tow with, though. I'm hoping to offset sag when towing with those, keeping the stock ride when not towing.
