I read on another forum that fabtech and rustys made some adjustable coil over spacers. And that fabtech had a wrench that allowed to change them without jacking up the jeep.

Can someone give me a link to them if they are still made? Thanks!!

Personally I would buy the JKS if I was going down this road.

Yeah I like the fit and finish of the jks ones better. Worth the extra $40 to me.

Does anyone know I it would be safe to run the jks without the adjusting ring to get only about .75" of lift for a while? I have heard of people doing that on other forums but I haven't had anyone tell if it works fine or not.
