would it be safe...

Well I just recently put on a 2.5 in coil spacer lift. I am really happy with it, and it has just started to break in, and I love the new ride, but now...i think i want a little more. It's gotten a chance to settle, and I'm a very anal person, so I notice the difference in height from the day before I got the lift installed, to the day it was finished, to now. I know I'm just really meticulous, but I was looking into replacing my springs anyway (they've got 140k on em and I;ve got the saggy rear). I was just wondering if it would be safe to replace them with the Performance Product's 1in. lift springs in addition to the coil spacer lift, and what problem's i could potentially run into. or if it's just a better idea to replace them with new stock springs, since that will cure my sagging rear anyway. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

...anything? Will the new PP springs fit into the spacer? Is it too much stress on the front suspension to add that much in addition to the spacer? Will I run into serious problems in the rear?

...now did I just go and ask a really REALLY dumb question? If i did, please let me know. 300+ views and no replies is telling me something. Party foul??

PP springs should fit,but you should invest in a diff. drop spacer with that much lift.For the rear, I would look into an adjustable trac/panhard bar.

If you have 140k on your shocks too you should just replace everythign and go with a kit like some Bils/PP coils or something like this........

Both are much better than spacers but it will cost a little more.

Right on.Sell the spacers and buy coils and shocks.

Thanks alot for the input. I really appreciate it. I feel terrible replacing the whole spacer kit cause I know i;ve invested in a lost cause... Either way, I've just run into a financial frenzy tho, so all ive got planned is going to have to wait (I've got classes to pay for...) But I'm definitely gearing towards the Bils/PP's. Thanks again
