Not Happy about the 99 coils I installed (question)

Hey ebelen1,
How tall is your parking garage? I put a set of LC springs in the back of my runner and 285s on too, and fits in our 6'6" parking garage by 1" or so..... Just so you know
And Fusion, sorry to hear about your springs!!!

They are only 52 bucks each.

I guess new coils would be the way to go because the ones I have sag pretty bad even when I put groceries in the rear so I'm thinking the spacer wouldnt fix that.

I emailed Evan at Northridge and they went up to like $54 each now.
.....not sure if they are still doing free shipping either!?

What is your opinion on which I should get.
Should I except the coils to get any worse.

thats a pricey fix

The bottom line is that if you want the right stock coils, but them new from the dealer with a part number.

There's people selling coils with 130k on 'em which IMO are shot and probably were quite a while ago and I'd never buy used coils anyway. My '99 had almost 100k on the stock coils before they were replaced and the rear sat less than a half inch less than the front. I just replaced my shocks and coils with new OEM and now sit a half inch higher in the rear like it's supposed to so I figure I'm good for at least another 80k.
