with 2" spacers like that and no drop brackets for the axle pivots and radius arms, you'll either never get it aligned back right.. or you'll need the camber bushings for it.

honestly I would do a 2" body lift before I did a 2" spacer lift like that, and I HATE body lifts.

I've heard people that have aligned it with those lifts... I've heard people say even with the camber bushings, the alignment wasn't right. So, idk for sure... I've never had those lifts... just going by what I've read on here. :icon_thumby:

I ran a 2.5" susp. lift with no drop brackets and had it aligned just fine (3 degree camber bushings) for over a year.

i have the spacers in my 90 b2 and with the +/- 3.5 degree adjustable bushings its just fine. i still have some room for more adjustment if i wanted to add a little more lift to it.

I have this very set in my 89 BII and can't gain enough camber to get 0* (i'm right around +1* with bushing maxed out). However, my springs don't seat well on the center of the spacer. I suspect I've got around 3" of lift because of this. I'd suggest finding a better quality set.
