Installed Coombs HD rear coils.

Lifted the van a couple years ago and put in coil spacers and the blue HD coils, noticed late last year that I was getting a lot of sag out of the rear so a few weeks ago I finally ordered some of CCA's new custom made L400 rear coils.
You can immediately feel the difference between them. The new ones feel a couple pounds heavier each, they're quite obviously made from a heavier gauge steel.
I pulled out the old coils and the spacers, put the new coils in and it sits as it should for a 2" lift. I'll drive it for awhile and see if they settle at all, I'm not sure if a 1" spacer may be required in the future but a 2" would make it look like a hot rod.
I've put about 50km on them so far and difference is night and day. I did't realize how much body roll I was getting, and the rear was squatting under acceleration quite a bit. No more however!
