My car is sagging in the right rear and I was looking into using some just to get through this ridiculous winter, then new springs when it gets warm enough to work outside again. Anyone have experience good or bad with these between coil spacers?

The solid ones you twist-in with a ratchet are the only ones that are 'legal' here in VA, and only for the purpose of putting back to normal ride height.
I'd go for them, they should be easy to find. The kind with threaded rod between two plates look scary to me.Pete ::::>>> resident LED addict and CFI defector LED bulb replacements

I think you're supposed to put them in 2 at a time, one across from the other, one coil apart. I might have just made that up.Pete ::::>>> resident LED addict and CFI defector LED bulb replacements

I had to use two of the rubber blocks in one of my rear springs to keep the tire out of my fender. Pain in the ass to installhttp://secondhandracing.com/Home.aspx

New springs cost you $80 at Autozone and 30 minutes to change. Raise the body off the ground and place on jackstands, place jack under rear axle, remove 2 lower shock bolts and lower the rear axle and let it hang, pull the springs out. Replace.
