i just installed the RC spacer lift on my 06. i also had 2. 1/4" spacers made. i have got it all installed and everything is rideing just fine but. i put the 1/4 spacers on top of the RC spacer. Tymac just told me it should have been under the RC spacer. whats the differance?

It's fine above. As long as there were enough threads on the studs for the strut nuts under the hood. The spacers are designed to go on top

Sweet. Now some wheels/tires/skids/sliders.... then trails :)

Is your driveway level? Looks like its sloped, that'll change the measurements a bit.
