If you add the shock extensions you need the 2"-3" extended sway bar disconnects. If you go with stock length you will bind up your front axle.

I had to rearrange the rear passenger side spring this weekend. I heard some metalic rattling and found the spring is in the same shape as the other (pics almost the same as above). Did the same "fix" as before, disconnected the sway and shock in order to "kick" the spring back into place on the spacer and then rotated the whole spring and spacer so the crushed over section was facing the opposite direction. The other side seems to be holding but I'll checking every few days.
Still no word on when the "new" FT spacers are coming out. Dave said he was told 2 weeks and its been longer. I am getting nervous about my camping trip up to the dunes in a couple weeks...its the whole reason we are going!

Dave has been great, I am trying really hard to keep my "is it done yet??" emails to a minimum. He did tell me even though FT said 2 weeks we can pretty much bet on closer to 4. While it is frustrating rushing a product will only lead other/more issues so I'll deal with it. If nothing else I'll have the tools handy for my camping trip. I'm getting pretty good at disconnecting the axle on either end and have all the torque specs memorized

Well after a awesome trail ride this last Sunday with some fellow MI JK owners I am happy to report that I had no issues with my rear springs slipping out/over the lip of the spacers. That isn't to say that I trust them now...still waiting on the replacements.

Haven't been on the site here in a while but thought I would update that after MONTHS I am STILL waiting on Full Traction's new econo lift replacements. I've been bugging dave about it...well haven't recently so I guess this helps me put it off a little longer since I know its not his fault. The spacers seem to be holding as long as I keep rotating them once the springs push out to much against the flimsy sidewall/lip.
