About to hit the button

alright im going to order the ssc springs (canuck motorsports on ebay) and i had a quick questions before i go ahead and hit the button...

1) how important is rack spacers? i have an ls and the drop is going to be pretty extreme, what are the disadvantages of not getting the spacers?

2) how long will my shocks and struts last with the drop? i have 26k on the car now, what will happen when they do go out?

anybody with experience with ssc springs and fe1 suspension holla

ill have pics before and after for you all

Don't know about rack spacers. Don't know how long your struts are going to last, but when they go out, all that really happens is your car gets really bouncy on that spring because there is nothing to stop the car from bouncing around on that spring.
