I'm new to the forum and I just bought a 3 inch rough country lift with the 3 inch front spacers and was wondering if anyone has had any problems with clearance of the axle and the strut. If anyone has any advice on the installation it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

YES, SEND IT BACK, DO NOT USE IT
Spacer lifts do not work well at all on KJs, they wear out front suspension parts fast
PLUS unless you replace the springs and shocks you may only get an inch or so of real lift
There is no way that you can really make it work and not wear out parts
Trust me, have removed enough spacer lifts that wore out front shocks, UCAs etc in no time
Do it right and use OME springs and either OME or Bilstein shocks
you'll be glad you did in the end

Yes listen to Tom. Spacer lifts are not a solution, they are a real problem. :(
This reminds me of a Doug & the slugs song- Makin' it work...
