One slid off? Is that side sagging? I would imagine that would affect your driving. I guess I am trying to picture how it slid off....I guess I will find out shortly if the OME springs are a different diameter than stock.

Interesting. The spacer should probably be used on the top of the spring, not the bottom. The top seat has an ID lip that keeps the spring and spacer from moving around.
Just my $.02.

I put mine on top but be careful if you lift the truck without lifting the axle you will tear the brake hose, just not long enough to stretch out. Another $9.00 learning experience for me! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

Any one know if you can get a 1in spacers. 2.5in lift valley springs are sagging with less than a year of use. Using the spacers would pick my ass end back up.

I had the longer shocks, rough country is the name. Less than 1000 miles on them and one has already failed. however they did replace it.
