Well...you don't ever put a spacer underneath a spring, for one. It lifts it out of the bucket and you get the high likelihood of it escaping at the most inopportune time.

So you came here looking for advice about spring spacers used under the coil-spring, all said bad idea and yet you are going to do it.
As posted its a bad idea and should not be done, get a set of Hellbent 3" spacers.

I have an idea on what you are now going to use, these are not what you need or want to install in your 4wd truck. Get a set of proper Dodge Ram coil-spring spacers they are not that expensive and will work much better than any rubber insert that goes into the spring coils.

That or swap out your coils for some 3500 coils. That will lift you. But really bad idea on the spacers.imho

Do what the man says. Do it.
More importantly, DON'T, do what you are talking about doing.

The ones you want to use are a waste of money. I did it to an hold f150 and it didnt make any difference what so ever.

The 2nd type you were talking about...bad idea. I've seen those go wrong so many times.
