Rep Power: 0 spring spacers?
anyone ever heard of these? iv'e heard a few people mention this before but i can't find this item anywhere, not even sure if they exist.
My car is dropped 3+ inches and i want to raise the back up a 1/4".
I don't have coilovers but I have koni yellows and have them set on the upper perch already.
Thanks for your help.

Rep Power: 393 i believe familyman is the one who came up with this idea.. the rear has this rubber peice at the top, the spring sits on.. he simply bought another one to raise it up a lil bit, not sure what peice exactly it is. if you link me to the hondautomotive parts page where they show a diagram of what the strut is composed of, i could probably give you the exact peice... or you could just PM familyman

Rep Power: 0 Here it is:
it is part #12 (Honda #369104). Get you one of those for each side and snip the cupped part off and grind down the flat part flat and smooth. Then put it between part #13 and #9. You may be able to go with 2, but I only have 1. Alternatively you can have a machine shop make you a part out of aluminum similar to what I did out of the rubber piece. It won't give you quite a 1/4". Here is the LINK to the website with part info. Good luck.
