Update after the spacers, should have measured both sides before I got the custom spacers!

What spacer sizes are you running? Any difference in drivability? Looks good!

Haven't driven it yet, replacing the front diff(when one comes in).

Custom 1.75" front and 1.25" rear billet aluminum spacers from RTE.

Thanks! I am still wondering what I can do about the .5" difference from side to side... Maybe throw the D1 perches in the rear on the low side.

You could try swapping springs from side to side. Normally people complain about the driver's side being too high. The springs are sided, and they make the DS springs a little taller.

Yeah I know they're "handed" but was pretty sure they were correctly installed... bah. I'll swap front springs and install a rear perch for the extra .5" on the low side in the rear.

Yeah, I wasn't suggesting they weren't installed incorrectly, and I just thinking putting the tall springs on the wrong side might level things out, without buying new hardware.

haha they absolutely could have been, but it's easier to change the perch and get the extra half inch then to swap the springs.

It'll look even nicer when the 255 85 R16 KM2s go on!
