For clarification, yes its mounted wrong way. Mount plate goes on top of uca. I've seen a couple posts thats done it to minimize the spring/uca contact.
I've heard of some who's done it over on lostjeeps. I've seen a picture of diy ball joint spacer on facebook, but I already know how you feel about facebook Tom.
I need to start taking notes. I think I already know an answer to this.

Problem with fakebook is you have a bunch of kids who just bought their first 4x4 who think they know everything there is to know in the world. Back when I was their age I listened to guys my age ( now ) and took notes and followed what works. You try to help and all you get are smart a** remarks back. So yes I have a very dim view of most on fakebook.
BUT lots of others do as well, get on any 4x4 site and read what the oldtimers write.
Yes some GM owners run a bracket/ spacer, actually helped a buddy install a set on his GM product type pick me up, also was there to help replace parts after it broke.
But hey nots not my ride!:happy175:
I know what, why and how things are manufactured when you start using them in ways that are different then things happen.
But again go for it and let me know what happens in the next 100,000 miles :gr_grin:
(
you see those people doing it never go that far, maybe 1000. )
Oh and are any of them that were doing it on LOST still around............:Bye:
