    Guys you gotta be kidding me. You're still talking about top plate spacers. My next post was gonna be on fur wrapped steering wheels but maybe I better hold off on that one. By the way can anyone explain to me how spacers compress and preload the coil springs when they sit on top of the whole unit , just curious.

    You mean to say you created this thread ripping into people who have posted their opinions on spacer lifts and you don't even understand how they work to begin with?!?!

    The top plat espacers dont pre load the spring. Instead, they lengthen the shock spring assembly....MUCH better for the ball joints, and such.
