Your best bet is to contact Vic at SBR offroad. Vic and Sue have huge range of different lift and shock combinations to sell all on show and are not bias to one or the other. Very much worth the trip to Wangara.

Everyone uses there Jeep differently and have own preference when it comes to how they like there jeep to ride on and off the road. I'd suggest maybe asking a few Jeepers if you could maybe go for a ride in there jeep and have a feel for yourself before deciding on any spring or shock set up.

Usually found on light commercials that are offered with both a single rear wheel and a dual rear wheel option. I.e 4 ton and higher Mercedes sprinters have spacers fitted to the front axle to match the track and bolt pattern of the larger rear axle

Porsche also used spacers on a few of the older offerings.
