I have the same problems that people are experiencing with slack in the coils when the suspension is unloaded.

I've so far only found eibach and hypercoils that make some.

It's basically a short 3-4" spring that is placed on top of the coil. When you hit a bump or jack up you car, the small spring that is a light one (you can compress it with your fingers) takes up the space.

Any feedback or URLs would be appreciated.

I was going to but in helper in the rear but the price was steep, like $90 each. I have never had a problem with my coil over springs coming off the perches.

Thanks Nino. That what I heard about pricing. Hypercoil sells theirs for 19$ US each but it doesn't come with it's own perch/spacer. So it's pretty much useless since it would slide out laterally.

I guess I will have to keep the "Baja" style on my car this summer. At least I have plenty of ground clearance and I have 1" of extra travel with my custom Bilsteins.
