Front spacers only okay?
15 posts
• Page 1 of 1
So I bought marks 2.5" lift. Have the front installed with blistien hd shocks. Now for the rear I was trying to install the skyjacker c25r s that I have but simply cannot compress them enough to fit the spacer in. So im thinking they will just naturally add enough lift. Is it okay to install these springs without the spacers and keep the front spacers only?

I have to say this...
To be "AceOfSprings" you sure do ask a lot of questions about them.
Sorry but I had to say it
Don't worry I'm just as likely to ask a bunch of questions about GPS software later on.
Feel free though man, that is why we are here.
Install without the rear spacer and see how you like the look.
If you want more lift in the rear, try disconnecting the rear sway bar, that should give you a little more room to play with.

I gave up fixing mine. Everytime I'd fix it, it would just hang down like that in another spot. Everyone I see is like that to. Stupid design.

I used some kind of glue to fix mine on both sides.
