I'm going to be lifting my '94 soon, and have seen where some Ex'ers are using the F150 Spacers for the front. But I thought I had seen where some people are actually using the F150 Coil Springs for the additional lift. I was almost sure I had seen this, until I started searching and now I can't find it.
 






Cant tell you about the springs , like you say I remember hearing about them though.
I like lots of guys have ran the spacers for a while now with no issues, heres the part #s in case you go that way. Good luck.

If I remember correctly.. The spring rate of the f-150 coil was much higher than the explorer spring..

You would get extra lift by the length of the spring AND get a really rough ride from the high spring rate...

The spacer won't affect your spring rate.. but will lift the truck..
