If they are lifting the jeep 4.5" you will need 4.5" lift spring to replace them. They are affecting flex some but not much. If the sway bars are connect when wheeling that is affecting flex more. Also I'll bet you have stock length springs also reducing amount of available flex.

to answer your question, spacer do not add or take away from flex... they thex the same as they would with any other coil
