Looking at the MM spacers and had a question. Are there any problems with sheet metal fatigue on the top of the shock tower where the spacers touches the vehicle ? My last non GM vehicle would tear the mounts if the factory sheet metal wasn't sandwiched between the plates spreading the load.

Ive only had them for a few months but when I was reading up on lowering the V Ive never came across anything about the metal fatiguing and causing any type of failure.

I wanna say $65 shipped...i have pics on the classifieds cause I wanna gonna sell it, check it out. What springs are you going with? The lowered stance looks more aggressive imo. No issues at all with the spacers or the shocks after the install.

Hey MM so do those red bushings come with? I only have the 3.6l sport package but upgrading to fe4 shocks, have eibach springs already, sadly I didn't do my homework about what springs would be needed. I only am buying shocks cuz a couple of mine are blown so why not upgrade to a little more sporty solution? I heard the front springs will still work and the back will no prob as soon as I mod the rear nivomats. Is this true? Anyone? But I need to know what all comes with that package so I know what all to buy as I only have the new fe4 struts and shocks, eibach lowering kit for the 3.6L nothing else. I plan to get a away bar but need to make sure mounts, bushings, spacers or anything else I need I have on hand and ready to go also before I tear I to it. Will my mounts and such work?

I believe the rear will be a simple swap. The spacers should bolt right in just like the instructions say. The spacers should come with the bushings needed.

above are some pics to help. i answered your email thoroughly i hope!

if you are switching swaybars all you SHOULD need are the larger bars and larger bushings.
