Suspension advice please

Hi, I recently put a 2" tough dog lift on my 2.5 D40 but it has thrown the ride height way out, now the rear is sitting over 100mm higher than the front so I was thinking of putting in a 2" spacer on the front to get it a little bit more leveled. Is there anybody that has done this in the past? Thankyou

Do NOT put a 2" spacer in. I had the same prob, i put in 15mm ironman spacers up front, got 60mm lift all up in the front, 70mm in the rear. Thats with 2" lift.

A 2" spacer will root your CV's and the UCA's will hit the coil bucket

I've seen them on eBay 35mm spacer gives you 50mm lift apparently or is this incorrect mate?

Yeah but you put another 50mm on top of your already 50mm lift, and you will most likely put a bad angle on your CV's and the UCA's will be banging against the coil bucket.

15mm spacers are perfect. They level your ride out and with a wheel alignment you can keep the factory CV's. I managed to fit 33's on mine with a 2" lift and 15mm spacers up front. No rubbing and my CV's are still straight.

Awesome thanks very much mate.
