I thought I'd seen some people here post that they had use spacers in the back. I didn't need them before but do now. I'm riding a bit high up front (reverse stink bug, hate the look) and want to settle it out a bit. Really surprised how much lift the OME 2703 springs give without being too hard.

As an aside, I'm still pretty cranked over my BP-51 experience, but have to admit that I really like the way the Nitrocharger Sports ride. For day to day driving, they feel every bit as nice as the working BP-51s did, but at 1/3 the cost! Good job, ARB.

I think you have 2 options for the rear spacers! you can throw 2 10mm OME trim packers on each side, that would give ya almost an inch. Or I think someone makes a 1 inch spacer for the 80/100 series that works just fine. @MScruiser and @Willy beamin will tell ya the best route!
 
I have the OME 80 Series trim packers.

Easy mod.
 
I've had the 10mm 80 series trim packers on the rears for over two years and have had no issues. Flexed / stretched the rear springs plenty of times and everything stays in there as intended so that shouldn't be a concern either. Go for it man
 
80 series trim packers work on the 200, very good information. Thanx guys.

Slee makes his own trim packers for 80, so I'll call him and get his input. Glad I will be able to level out soon!
