    they dont. these coilovers with a 1/2" spacer has the same extended length as off the shelf extended travel coilovers. that extra 1/2" is the limit of cv axles though. hard to think about the absolute torture the front ends of 3" spacer lifted trucks go through.

    issue with this is that even though op compressed suspension to bump stop and shaft travel wasnt maxed. on hard hits that rubber bump stop is gona compress and take up what very little travel there was. will it it hard enough to cause damage? maybe not.
