Rear Coil Spacer.

Are rear coil spacers for 2nd gens good? Will I need longer shocks. I am just curious. Probably going to go with 1.5" Downey springs instead.

You are right, if I were you I would go with Downey Coils. IMO they would perform better than spacers.

If you go with the Downey HD coils like I have, they will net you around 2" or so in the rear.

Stock length shocks will be fine.
You don't need the longer shocks until you start adding the 1.5" spacer to the Downey coils, and that is not really needed unless you plan on running 33" or bigger tires.

You can run 32" tires with the Downey HD's, and a T bar crank.
