I just got told to put some longer bolts in the 2 rear bolt holes and put a 1 inch washer in there. that should work.

yea the washer method may not be the "best" method according to sonoran, or others, but it's definitely effective, and cheap.

You must have cranked your torsion bars. What do you mean by safe? The 1" washer idea is EXACTLY what you'll get from everywhere else. You just have to find the washer.

Down side to any diff drop is front driveline vibrations. Some get em, some don't.

While you can make them yourself, I highly recommend that you buy from 4crawler, as it is good to support vendors!
