3" TeraFlex Lift Kit Question - Need Advice on included spacers
So I ended up getting a really good deal on a lightly used 3" TF lift kit last week for my 08 Unlimited. I've had my eye on a 2.5" for the longest time but the deal on this 3" was just too good to pass up and is a more complete kit. Issue is, is that I know I don't want to go over 33" tires (with my 3.73 gears) so 3" might be a little overkill. Looking through the installation instructions between the 2.5" and 3" kits, the 3" kit includes a a 1" poly spacer or isolator for each coil spring that the 2.5" doesn't. Do these spacers actually need to be used? They aren't even included on the 2.5" kit. Just thought by leaving these out and just using the factory isolators, I wouldn't net as much lift but still have a great lift on the vehicle!
Any thoughts?

I didn't use them for 2 years, then I put 37's on. Now I have the 1/2" in the back and a 1" in the front. Make sure you got the axle mount rear trackbar bracket, the kits first came out with a frame mounted one. Also get the Rock Krawler
degree wedges for your rear axle for $25-$30. David has them at Northridge 4x4.
I missed that you're in Canada, call Stan at Northridge 4x4.
