looking for some answers on the 4" lift, the spring spacers that come with the lift, is everybody keeping these on or taking them off? it makes the ride so stiff , took it riding last weekend and if you run over something with one front wheel it gets the other off the ground, the same distance. is there any draw baks to removing these? because at this rate, the way it rides i will need to see the chiropractor weekly.

What setting do you have your shocks at? Try putting them at the lowest setting.

If you take them off all together the suspension will sag too much and you'll lose a lot of ground clearance in the back. Looks to me like the setting is all the way down on the shocks from the picture so I recommend you take the spacers off and cut them in half. That should help the ride out a lot while still keeping enough pressure on them so you don't lose clearance.
