WARNING 2" lift troubles

Just thought I would spread the news, I bought one of those ebay 2" lift kits that uses the spring spacers in the front on my 94 STX. I'll never do that again, the centers of the spacers broke out dropping my front end down on the 32" tires. Luckly I was only doing about 5 mph when they let go. could have been real bad at highway speeds. So if your useing them check them out mine only lasted 4 months.

sky jacker sells a nice set of springs that would give you a 2" lift in the front. and honestly if you went to the trouble of installing spacers would not ave taken but a few minutes longer. The set of springs cost me bout $140
