@Black or others... Would you happen to know if spring spacers for our 3rd gens are interchangeable front to rear? I'd like to raise my rears (on Ranchos QuickLift) a small amount. Readylift has a 1.5" "leveling kit" (front spacer). I'm trying to figure out if I can use these in the rear.

I've got the Bilstein 6112's up front, so I can just move the lower spring perch up when it comes time to lift.
BTW, I wish the Bilstein 6112 had more rebound damping. Around town, after going over deep dips at a "brisk" speed, the front end pogos a bit. The rears (on Ranchos set to 7 / 9) don't pogo at all - noticeably firmer than stock (50k miles), and the 7/9 setting is still pretty comfortable for me and the family. Perhaps Bilstein tuned the 6112 more for off-road (softer), but with their claim of digressive valving (damping curve increases more sharply for lower-speed movements), I would have expected much firmer damping at lower speeds, such as dip recovery, with damping tapering off at higher speeds such as bump recovery.
Thanks in advance
