Take it off and get your money back. TBI spacers are completely useless on a MPI motor. All is going to do is whistle and howl. Seriously, not worth $.02 much less $40.

me and a buddy went to the local pick and pull... got myself some coil springs from a bronco (hope they fit) and also a pair of dakota 4x4 leaf packs for my bastard pack.
now i just gotta find a good write up on how to do the bastard pack and get to work on it!
im guessing ill get a little over 3" lift maybe even 4" dunno if it'll need a t case drop or sye yet

Too steep of a pinion angle so my oil slinger didn't sling oil. I'm going to drop the angle about 2 degrees and move the fill plug up about 2 inches, swap the bearings and I should be golden. It's a junkyard axle and I didn't check the pinion bearing since the carrier bearings and wheel bearings were good. With my luck should have known.
