As SumoSprings are designed for use on vehicles with stock ride height and around 1" of space between the axle and the bottom of the jounce, this may not be the best option. There will be no spacers available to accommodate for lifted vehicles, unfortunately. They may still work for you, but there will end up being a lot force and weight necessary to get them to actually engage.

With that said, you may want to look at the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TTORSEQ. This will be a lot more heavy duty as it is rated up to 6,000 pounds of capacity, but Timbren does have the 1" Spacer For Raised Vehicles # TA25723-90AD00 that will get everything sitting in the correct place.
