leveling question??

I have a 2001 Ranger V6 3.0L XLT with a 3 inch body lift on it and 33in tires. My problem is that the front sags much lower than the rear. I took it to a local shop to get the torsion bars cranked but I was informed that I have coil springs. The only problem is I cant find coil spring spacers that fit my truck. All of the coil spring spacers I have found are for an 83-96 and all the torsion bars are for 01 to 08 or but I dont have torsion bars!!! The spacers seem like they would be fairly universal though? Not sure. Thats why Im here. HELP!

XL/XLTs are coil spring. Only 01-05 Edges, 98-11 4x4s, and 06-11 Sports have torsion bars.

here you go. when you buy them email the guy and tell him you want Part #: 1705
