Front Sag - aluminum spacers

Hey guys I have the RE 3.5 superflex lift and after installing my superwinch 8500lbs and an aftermarket bumper my front is sagging a little. I found this set of spacers on red rock 4x4. anyone have this setup and do you know if these spacers will work with the RE springs?

thanks!

Why not just get the poly spacers for cheaper and yes they will work.

I'm pretty sure the minimum adjustment on the ACOS will be too high for what he is trying to do.

Be very careful with the wife mod. Uninstallation can be extremely expensive. Wife mods have been known to take the Jeep and all other mods during the uninstall process. Also, make sure you service your wife mod properly as often as humanly possible. Wife mods not properly serviced may malfuction or uninstall themselves at any time.

1"?

If what you mean is not necessary, then of course. Other alternatives would be cheaper. But that's why it'd be gucci kit.

Check around on pricing too, a poly spacer is a poly spacer... I know RC sells some too.

Those aren't ACOS though. Those spacers would work perfectly fine.

Perhaps I was mistaken, I remember seeing a set of ACOS that were for 1.5-3", that would be too much even set at the minimum of 1.5".

If they are for a TJ, they will fit your springs.

BS.That's that old urban legend again.I heard that Jeep's flip really easy when driving drunk at 70 mph on city streets and quick turns are made,but only if you have 35's on a D35 and 3 fat girls riding.
