    I had my diff spacer on for two years. I installed a new 3" lift and I took the diff spacer off. Some on here have had major problems with the spacer kit. I have not had any, but you never know.

    If you're a mall crawler it won't hurt a damn thing. It will help a tiny bit on CV angles but not a whole lot.

    If you go offroad absolutely do not install it.
