    I bought an aluminum spanner wrench and broke it pretty quick lol the punch tool only works when its in the right position, but I saw another member who cut the end of another punch off and stuck just the tip into the holes then used a socket extension and hammer to tap the collar around until the tool would reach the hole again.

    I was an idiot and did not realize the tool only works in 1 direction. This is where I broke mine

    if you use the one from King, the tip is angled. This allows you to get the punch into position almost no matter what.

    might want to rethink that.... spacer or crank up, geometry would be the same.

    for the record OP, they are adjustable coil overs for just that purpose....no spacers. Also no add-a-leaf, you already spent good money on a really good set of shocks/springs, just spend the extra 300ish for a good set of dakars (medium if your not going to carry much weight, heavy if your going full RTT and loading it up.)
