Sh!t can the spacers. Shocks, put some KYB's on it. Y'all are stuck on KBY's.

I have ~1 1/4" spacers on mine to even out with the SR axle. Gotta picture of that spacer on an SR rear end. Is this to correct driveshaft angle???

No, the spacers are on the front only. It's to correct the width difference in the SR rear axle and the OE open small.

ok 1st off don't get the gen 2 coils and don't us the gen 2 upper control arms, unless you want your coils to fall out (and yes gen 1 V6's have coils) and if you want to snap tie rods on your steering. Just crank your torsion bars and remove shims from the upper control arm shaft and use gen 1 LWB coils in your rear to lift it, that will give you 1" and a half of lift. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

ok 1st off don't get the gen 2 coils, unless you want your coils to fall out (and yes gen 1 V6's have coils) I have GenII coils, and mine haven't fallen out. Maybe I'm special. and don't us the gen 2 upper control arms and if you want to snap tie rods on your steering. GenI tie rods are weak, everybody knows this. That's why I carry a set of spares. Tie rods, idler arm, and ball joints. remove shims from the upper control arm shaft Why not let the alignment shop do this?
