Coil Spacers – Affordable Lift & Levelling for 4x4s
Coil Spacers provide a cost-effective way to add lift or level your 4x4’s stance without replacing springs. Ideal for fitting slightly larger tyres or correcting sag, they are a straightforward bolt-on solution when you don’t need a full suspension kit.

Coil Spacer Types
- Polyurethane Spacers: Affordable, lightweight and easy to install.
- Steel/Alloy Spacers: Stronger construction for heavy-duty or long-term use.
- Front Levelling Kits: Raise the front end to correct nose-down stance.
- Full Spacer Sets: Lift both front and rear axles equally for extra clearance.
Coil Spacers – Quick Comparison
| Spacer Type | Best For | Key Benefits | Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Polyurethane | Budget lift | Low cost, easy install | Less durable than steel/alloy |
| Steel/Alloy | Heavy-duty builds | Strong, long-lasting | Heavier, higher cost |
| Front Levelling Kit | Correct nose dive | Balances stance | No rear lift |
| Full Set | General lift | Raises all corners | No spring rate change, limited travel gain |
How to Choose & Install
- Purpose: Levelling, tyre clearance, or budget lift?
- Material: Choose polyurethane for low-cost/light duty, steel/alloy for strength.
- Height: 20–50 mm spacers are common; more may require geometry correction.
- Check compatibility: Ensure fitment with your coils, top mounts and shocks.
Example: A pickup with a nose-down stance can use a front coil spacer kit to level out, improving appearance and tyre clearance without changing springs.
Fitment & Compatibility Guide
- Lift vs travel: Spacers increase ride height but don’t add suspension travel.
- Shock length: Check that shocks have sufficient travel to avoid topping out.
- Alignment: Lifts over 40–50 mm may require castor correction or camber kits.
- Installation: Bolt-on design, usually reuses OE springs and mounts.
Upgrade Sequence Roadmap
| Stage | Focus Area | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Front Levelling | Correct nose dive or accessory weight. |
| 2 | Full Spacer Set | Extra clearance at budget cost. |
| 3 | Geometry & Alignment | Correct castor and camber on taller lifts. |
| 4 | Full Suspension Kit | Upgrade to springs/shocks if loads or terrain demand. |

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do coil spacers improve suspension travel?
- No. They raise ride height but don’t increase suspension travel or spring rate.
- Are coil spacers safe for off-road use?
- Yes if installed correctly with suitable shocks. For heavy loads, consider upgraded springs instead.
- What’s the maximum spacer lift I should use?
- Typically 40–50 mm. Beyond that, geometry correction and longer shocks may be needed.
- Do spacers affect ride comfort?
- Comfort remains the same, as the original springs are retained. Ride quality depends on spring/shock condition.
- Do you ship coil spacer kits across Europe?
- Yes. OFM4x4 supplies and ships coil spacer kits across the UK and Europe, with local stock options for faster delivery.
