2.5 spacer or 2.5 coils? cause if it is a spacer I would say no. If it is coils I would say maybe. If it something like Teraflex that the 2.5 may give you 3+ you will prolly need them.

I have been running the rough country 2.5 bb (spacer - 2.5 front / 2 rear) for just over a year without altering the sway links on my '08 Rubi 4 door. No problems thus far after about 4k miles. About 6 mos ago, I stopped in at the 4wheelparts store in Coppell, TX and they stated I should not have any issues, so I have just left it that way.

Only thing I have read is that in extreme offroading you run a higher risk of inverting them.

I wouldn't sweat it. I think it will be ok.
