Recently I converted my EAS LR3 to a standard coil kit. The front end is fine, however, the back sits lower than I would like and it drops slightly when my teardrop trailer is attached, affecting tongue weight. I don't need much, a 1/2" to 3/4" spacer to get what I need. Not much available here in Canada. I'm wondering of anyone has a source in the UK or elsewhere. Any help is appreciated. Cheers!

have you considered installing helper air bags inside the rear springs? I used PolyAir Springs on a Disco1, no problems.

they provide some flexibility as you adjust them for the load.
Perhaps there is a supplier in North America for the same products. just a thought.

I am going for the same convention myself. Which kit have you used? I've order the Dunlop one. What I am thinking is either install spacers or change the springs to longer and heavy duty also. Since you are in America there is a kit from Atlantic British with old emu lift kit of about 2"

I have the AB standard kit which unfortunately does not sit at standard height. It actually sits about an inch lower and they don't tell you that. In hindsight, I would have ordered the AB 2" lift kit with OME springs. However, if I make a template, a friend of mine can make a set of spacers so I think I'm going to be fine.
