This is the first mod I'm considering doing to my 2 week old rig and I want to make sure it's worthwhile.
Just installed that same lift last weekend, and had the same question.....so I went ahead and re-installed the bracket back in the same spot, then went and flexed the Jeep out to see if it would be an issue, and it wasn't...still had plenty of slack.

I would go with the spidertrax spacers. You can't go wrong. Especially if you plan on keeping the stock wheels. (I did)

Where did you get your weathertec liner, would you mind posting a pic.

And you are right about the salt, mud and snow in Bangor ME. Especially this year...

I will have to consider them for next winter..

Woods evap relocate kit, my jeep didn't even have 100 miles when I got that one.
Also did weathertec floorliners for 80 bucks.
