Instead of limiting straps...how about stacking washers and bringing up the bumpstomps of the lower control arm? Seems like it would serve the same purpose?

Two top out spacers are bad because of excessive droop, which creates extreme cv angles and thus breakage. Using limiting straps lets you control how much the suspension droops. Raising the bumpstops on the lower arms would just reduce suspension travel, that wouldnt do anything to prevent excessive droop.

Define your term of "droop".

Droop is the downward travel of the suspension.

The stacked washers that you mentioned doesn't limit the downward travel. It can only limit the upward travel. A limiting strap is needed to limit the downward travel.

This has been discussed several times before on this forum and it is a BAD idea.

There just seems to be alot of people running 2.5" or 3" spacers. I don't see how 2 topouts could be worse.

I assume you are talking about the Daystar-style lift spacers. Those spacers are providing the lift and are not being used in conjunction with a lift spring. They are on top of a stock spring.

You should try wheeling it hard at full lock with 2 Top-outs and lots of traction. Make sure to bring you hubn socket and a new CV.

Gotcha, thanks for clearing it up.
