That's a great idea Winabbey.

What's the consequences if you don't have spacers? My car was converted to dry suspension by someone years ago and doesn't have spacers. Car handles very well (excellent even), should I have a need to consider installing spacers? I have bolts, so I guess the subframe is a wet one?

If you have a wet subframe it should not need the spacers, whether using with dry or wet suspension.
