if i take out the spacer the angles dont look too bad lowered or lifted, the problem is im only getting about 5 inches of lift without the spacer. i had the spacer in and at ride height it looked to be about 70 psi (measured with a tire gauge), gaining my 2" of lift back...but i cant do that collapsed bag look. it obviously wont last long at all like that. the angles show worse with the spacer installed. this is frustraiting as im almost finished with this suspenion stuff...and thinking a redo might be the only fix

i sat the cheapo angle finder on the brackets. the top mount in the center where the bag mounts measures about 2 degrees give or take. the bottom ones are about 8 degrees. thats a big difference. the top mounts even look like they rake back. the front of it is about even (0 degrees), but when i measure the back of the plate...towards the rear..its about 3.5 degrees.
