Was thinking of replacing the rear springs in my 2001 Rodeo with Trooper springs to ad height and correct the droop and rear sag any comments would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: Rear Springs

how about spring spacers? Used trooper springs may be just as droopy as what you have now ... https://www.independent4x.com/mercha...roducts_id=525

Never liked spring spacers...just adding weight to an already weak spring. Trooper springs will add 1"to 2" of height and the coils are thicker and over all length is like 2 1/2 " . so there should be no Drooping problem after this. PlanetIsuzu has a complete section on the install and what the difference will be. I was going to go with air bags but if I'm going to go through all the work to remove the springs why not just replace them ??

Re: Rear Springs

Done and looks good. Put in 2000 Trooper rear coils and new shocks. Aldo do=id a Muffler and tail pipe. Raised the car over all about 2" in the rear ground to wheel well center is 34.5 inches front is 33.5 inches Sits good and rides like a dream. Thanks to all for the help in making this a somewhat easy job.
