steering rack spacer?

i plan on gettin some progress springs in the very near future. do i need to get a steering rack spacer? i was planning on getting the springs and sway bar from ottp so if i need one i figured i'll get it from them too. also would i get the one for a .9 - 1.4" drop or 1.5 - 2" drop?

You're gonna have to get the one for the 1.5-2" drop seeing those springs drop the car 1.5" in the front and 2" in the back.

rear drop doesn't effect bump steer

you're only concerned with the front and it's changes to the tie rod geometry.
