Please and thank you! Just installed a Cognito 7-9 on my 00’ Suburban. I am trying to get the back 1” down from the front. The front is 44” and then rear is 46”. Needs to come down 3” inches. It has a 7” spacer in it now.

I have looked through Moog and QA1 online databases of universal springs and didn’t really see anything that fit the bill. Skyjacker sells a 2.5” and a 5” soft ride rear lift spring. I guess I could take out the 7” spacer from Cognito and put the 2.5” lift spring in and a 1.5” spacer to make 4” of lift. Or use the 5” and crank the front 1”.

And I could put 3” drop springs in it but I really don’t want to do that.

Anyone got any other ideas or places to get springs?

I have no advice for you sorry. But if you get the skyjacker 5" let me know how it is if you don't mind.

I got the skyjacker springs. They are great so far, got me 4.75” of lift over stock, which was pretty much exactly what I wanted. They ride really well, very comfortable. I would definitly get them again.
