Spacers for New Downey HD's that are sagging

What are the best spacers to go with for added lift ontop of the Downey HD coils.... mine didnt give me the lift i wanted.
I have the BJ spacers, and my Torsion bars cranked to 15" rim to fender..and the back still sits low.

Any help?

Mine looks the same. I was looking into the SDORI spacers. But it concerns me that it will stiffen up the rear too much.

dude, spacer doesn't stiffen the rear coil at all. Just raised it up.

Also your Downeys aren't sagging. You just have the front too high. I'd either try to get the spacers from Downey or try to crank the front down a little more. I think at stock height there is a little more space in between the tire and the fender in the front than the back. From the pic it's looks pretty level too me but I look at the bottom of the body not the tires.

The ones from SDORI. I was hoping Elripster (FranK) would have some local here so I wouldn't pay for shipping.
