no stacking just a single spacer that is whatever height you are looking for at the top of the coil i believe

Ok but YahamaWR200 has 2 2.5 inch spacers on each spring so I was wondering how he did that?

Yeah.. I put one on top and one on bottom.. But I would STRONGLY urge you NOT to do that.. It is a SHI*** ride!! Way too stiff up front. I did it cause it was what I could afford at the different times. It was just to get me by.

If you want more, you would be WAY better off getting a 3" lift coil.. Way nicer ride. (which I will be doing soon to replace my spacers) You can get them new online for around $110+shipping.. This is probably where i'm gonna get mine when I have the funds. Not necessarily the best, but will be a heck of a lot better than what I have..

You can also just buy a set of used springs and pray they aren't sacked out. I just want to go new so I don't have to worry about it..

But if you feel the need to run dual spacers, I am running one of the polyurethane or hard rubber ones up top and the steel one on the bottom. The steel one is like the horseshoe one posted above and the rubber one is a full donut... If you are only going with one, I personally would recommend the full rubber donut one because it will be quieter if anything moves. Where as the metal one may make noise.

Also remember you will need to get new shocks as well.. I ran the 4 wheel drive shocks in mine. The bolt holes don't line up, but I just got my angle grinder and turn one hole on one side into a slot.. And just cut it to the edge.. That way it saves you having to buy "lift shocks" for the front at least..
