Should I buy these coil spacers?

I need something to help clear my new tires and dont want to spend alot of money. I'll only use them for about 6 months when I plan on upgrading to Sonoran's lift. Feedback would be awesome.

Don't forget coil spacers, or any susp lift that isnt a bracket lift, only makes more room at ride height. When you wheel your suspension compresses to the stock location, if you rub stock you rub with spacers..


otherwise that looks like a decent deal.. too bad its not 2.5" rear and 1.5" front to level you out..

I just bout the front 2.5" spacers from this vendor. The part was shiped promptly and the quality of the product was just as I expected. You can't beat the price on these. Go for it!

Just 265/75 mud terrains. But the tread is so deep that I had to smash down my pinch welds to clear when turning. I do wheel about every other weekend. I haven't been offroad with them yet so maybe tommorrow I'll know if that's good enough.

So I just got these spacers in today. I'm going to put them in this weekend. Any tips or helpful advice on doing the job?

Be sure to read the write up here and notice the use of the factory jack to push down on the upper a-arm when re-installing the strut in truck. I wouldn't have been able to re-install it myself with out this trick.
