AIM Industries Adjustable Springs Any Good?

I am trying to find springs for my 2wd 2001 dodge ram 2500 and I have been having a hard time finding anything.

I am looking to raise the truck up 2" and I came across these
http://www.truckn-store.com/product....sp%3Fid%3D2171

Anyone ever used them?

Thanks in advance

Looks just like coilovers they sell for cars. Should come with springs and spacers (but those aren't really spacers). I wouldn't get them. From my experience with lowered cars using coilovers, the ride was very stiff and the coils are usually much smaller than the space you have in the strut. Makes it a little scary on a heavy diesel truck. The problem with these is that they're adjustable. I think a spring with a designated height and spring rate provides much better ride quality. Plus you don't have to worry about one wheel being slightly taller than the other leading to alignment issues.

It's just an adjustable spacer....if you don't plan on hammering the truck hard, they should be okay. Says something about needing an upper CA though....

Biggest problem with these would be getting the camber dialed if you put too much spacer in it.

If you wanna do it right, I believe CST has a lift spindle for it...
