Heres the lift setup im running. Is that spacer normal? Looks wrangler to me. This is on a 1989 comanche shortbed, by the way.

Im baffled. Cant find pics anywhere like this.

a ghetto metal spacer that was welded in for lift on the cheap. you should remove it asap, its not really designed to be that way

A hacked together front suspension. No bumpstops, stock everything with a 3 to 4 inch lowered coil mounting point. Id torch it out.

Man, that's sharp. You should find the PO and smack him around a little bit.

I can't believe the coil tower hasn't buckled in on itself yet with that much leverage on it.
