Leveling Kit

While searching for a VX I have also been looking at 4 wheel sites just browsing for parts. I found a 2" leveling kit for $37. This was when I first started looking for a vehicle not realizing the front end was an IFS. I bought the kit about 2 months ago and just opened it, it's a pair of soft plastic coil spacers for a half ton Dodge pick-up. I phoned the parts supplier they said it was wrong and would take them back. BUT, the add was definately for a VX(limited supply of lifts, no longer advertised). Could this be to raise the rear
2" then just crank the torsion bars?????

Thanks all.

The best way to check, would be to drop one or both rear coils to see if it fits the top of the coil spring AND that it fits into the upper coil cup (after removing the stock coil bushing).
Or, if that's not a possibility...
There should be a recess in the spacer that the top of the spring fits into, if you post a center of recess to center of recess measurement to determine the diameter of the coil that will fit the spacer.
Maybe someone will post the diameter of some stock coils they have laying around...I can't find mine...:sighwgray
This pic may be helpful to know how it should look...
