Default Installed my 3/4 Spacers with my Terraflex coil lift today

Installed my new Daystar 3/4 Spacers with my existing Terraflex coil lift today. I only did the front tonight. I installed an ACE front bumper and lost about half an inch. Rear has Terraflex tire carrier and 315/75R16 tire. I will add the spacers in the rear tomorrow.

Front was a pain. Problem was I started by my self and my jack stands were not high enough. I new this would be the case but decided to go on anyhow. I could not lower my front axl low enough. Got my neighbor and his jacks when he came home and then fought pulling out the passenger spring and Terraflex bumpstop. Finally got them out, put in the spacer, and had to put the bumpstop inside the sping, then install the sping. From there had to rig up a two by four and a jack to push the bumpstop in. Bumpstop was our biggest trouble. Driver side not so tough. Spring came right out and same as bumpstop.

Tomorrow on to the rear.

I feel you on that. . Those Bumpstops are a pita. I did the same thing with a 2x4.
