2 inch spacer bb question.....
So yesterday i installed a set of mopar 18/ 59 coils and a 2 inch bb on my 2010 2 door sport. Everything appears to be working fine and i got about 3.5 inches of lift for a couple hundred bucks total. My question is, should i be able to see the spacer sitting on top of the coil in the front? And lastly, i now have a "squeak" coming from the back everytime i hit anysort of bump now. Any ideas why or how it can be resolved?
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!!

yes, you should see the spacer.
the squeak is probably the tracbar, but it is almost impossible to tell. if you didn't already you should loosen and retorque the trackbar at ride height.

Ok. We put everything back together while it was still up on jacks. We re-tighened everything again after it was on the ground but I will go back and re-do it all at ride height and see if that helps. Thanks for the tip!

I think everything should be pretty snug. I used an impact wrench (wisely) for everything so it should be tight but I will check. Thanks for the input!

I have a squeak but no clunk. We used an impact wrench as I mentioned in another reply so I think everything should be tight and go to go but I am going to check it tomorrow. Thanks again for the input. Im pretty stoked at all the help that is available on here.!
