Metal spring spacer cups install under your factory coil springs

This package combo deal includes custom designed front and rear coil spring spacers. These spacers are designed for your car to install under the factory coil springs. Simply remove your springs and reinstall them with the lift cup on the bottom.

UCL spring spacers are built from heavy duty steel to exacting specifications. We sell more lift spacers than anyone in the world for a reason. Our parts are built sturdy, welded correctly and finished in a high gloss black power coat finish.

Why do I need longer G Body lift shocks when lifting my car?

When lifting the front and rear of your car, the stock shock absorbers are not long enough to provide proper operation. The shocks will often bottom out on bumps in the road and cause an unusually harsh ride. This can make your car ride poorly and experience handling issues as well.

When raising the suspension, UCL lift shocks will give you the extra travel you need to ride right. Our shocks are designed for lifts ranging from 3 inches up to 7 inches. The shocks simply bolt in place of your original units.

Quite often your factory shocks are already in poor condition and adding a lift will only make the problem worse. Do the job right and install longer G Body extended shocks for your car lifting project.

How are UCL’s G Body lift shocks different from others?

Our shocks are gas charged and feature a twin tube design for optimal ride handling. Compared with the factory liquid filled units, UCL twin tube gas charged shocks are a significant improvement.

All of our shocks use a proprietary blend of nitrogen infused gas with a specially designed piston shape to optimize your lifted car ride quality. The nitrogen blend reduces foaming and aeration common in older vehicles worn out shock absorber designs. The special design of the hydraulic piston absorbs and dissipates vibrations for the best in ride quality and handling.

Durable gloss black powder coating lasts 100x longer than spray painted parts

When choosing lift cups and lift shocks for your car lift project, be sure to note the finish on the parts. All of Universal Car Lifts parts feature a durable gloss black powder coat finish. We start by cleaning the raw metal parts with a degreaser solution to facilitate a permanent finish bonding. The parts are then sent through a large oven and heated to encourage off gassing. This uniformly bakes off any impurities from the parts.

After pretreating the parts in an oven, the lift cups and lift shocks are professionally sprayed with a high end powder coat gun in a clean room spray booth. The parts are then sent back through the oven where they bake at the proper temperature to obtain a permanent bond.

This powder coat technique is the same method that new car manufacturers use to ensure their parts last virtually forever. It prevents rust from forming on the parts which will weaken the steel and cause premature failure.

Beware of “knock-off brand” sellers who use cheap hardware store spray paint to finish their parts. The finish will look like crap and the parts will almost immediately rust. The corrosion will eventually cause the parts to fail and could cause your rear end to fall out of your car.

Insist on genuine UCL lift cups and lift shocks for your project. We have been manufacturing car lifts longer than anyone else and have more cars running our lifts than anyone else.
