So, I thought I'd use the stock rear spring along with the stock front spring stacked together, but I need something that will keep them inline. I hope I explained that well enough.
I would think that a piece or two of heat shrink, applied when the springs are assembled end to end with the shock body in the center would work. Maybe add a small amount of glue to help it hold together. Or find a piece of thin wall plastic tube that fits perfectly to the outside of the spring, but that sounds hard to find. Heatshrink sounds like the thing I would use...

I llike the idea, and was going to suggest to stack 2 springs together (revo or jato) to get the extra length. Came up with that a few days ago, while staring at my gtp.
