My rear struts are not coil over so I just unbolted the top mount and pulled down the A arm and used a pry bar as well to open up the spring to install the spacers. I didn't bother with zip ties but they seem like they won't go anywhere with the strut remounted and the weight of the car on the spring.

Thanx Man. Just bought these for my 05 grand marquis ill install em tmro. I may need two more tho after watching yourvideo. 4 on each spring 2 long way and 2 the short way cause ive got HEAVY speakers and the cars so long and heavy it still may not sit right w just 2 on each spring.

it might work better if you find a way to lower the top mounts of the shock , like taking a bit out of the top cup they mount intoo or putting a filler piece inside the cup , that way the spring whont be loaded in a weird way

Being a strut, those will only add enough to max out the shock. Get a spacer for the top of the strut and you'll see some real gains

Im sure if you wanted to. It would probably be better to space it out at the top of the strut than inbrtween the spring coils if you had a choice.

@thousanddollarcarguy

Id say no. Not without actual spacer machined blocks at the top. Better off with a new suspension combo like coilovers

That's a mistake alot of people make: thinking it's aift. It's not! All ur doing is stopping the compression. If u want ride height higher then get the lift spacers that the coils sit on instead.

@@benwoodside31 theyre rubber spacers u can buy at autozone or any auto place. they fit on the spring. then loosly zip tie them on and slide them as far up as u need then. then tighten the zip ties and let the car down. thats what i did and it worked miracles for my car
