Can I use Daystar Spacer w/Dirt Logic Coilover?

Well, I want to do as much lift possible without a body lift (for now anyway).

Right now I am most likely going with 6" Procomp lift on my FX4 with Dirt Logic coilover replacements. My question is will the Daystar 2.5" (or any other leveling spacer) work with the aftermarket coil, since the Dirt Logic is a direct OE replacement???

Any help would be great! If the Dirt Logic coilovers wont work, will Procomps coilovers or any others work??? I need a sure answer, I have heard that it wont or that it might. Any for sure answers???

I wouldn't think you would need a spacer because the Dirt Logic and Pro Comp coilovers have adjustable preload. I don't know if you could combine the spacers with the replacement coilovers, but I would think you would. I would just be afraid that with that much preload on the spring the initial portion of your suspension travel would be extremely stiff.

Thumbs up 3" From Top Gun Customs

I think you have to remove those spacers, But I dont know if anybody has heard of the spacer that you dont have to put in between the coil and strut. It just bolts on top of the strut, and it gave me a full 3 inches. I love it. Although, I think I might have to take them out if I get a pro comp lift. But, for the time being they are great, and were easy to install

Hey Colby, I'm no expert but if you look at the dirtlogic coilovers and the stock coilovers they are totally different. The springs on the dirtlogic don't look like the spring spacer would work.

You MIGHT be able to fit the top spacer on there, but I can't see the bolt patterns or how wide / narrow the top of those coilovers are.

Good point. Autospring makes the to[ spacer right? What is their website?
