have you thought of bringing it back to the shop and asking them?

Here is mine for reference. As long as the end of the coil spring is seated against the notch of the rubber spring isolator, you're good. Or are you referencing the outward bow?

yes, but before, i value and respect experts here more than in the shop and i do mean it.... also learning experience for less experts (e.g. me) or others who feel the same...

Since we are on the subject:
How much lift did you achieve?
Was there any sag/settle?
How do they ride?

Curious minds want to know.

it is very soft... i just did it.... unfortunately i was not smart enough to do the measurmements before so cannot say if there is really full 2 inches... however my main goal was to remover 35s rubbing which happend and i feel this lets say at least 1,5 lift on it is nice..

i am also not more than moderate trial off-roader so i want to say i am happy... last summer I did MOAB and Colorado on stock only with 35 instead 33.. this summer will go further if any comments will share for sure... i know 2AEV is just more cosmetic / budged lift... and i can already tell it gets wavey on highway when going faster than 60-65...

i think it is worth it... for now

First check if the front wheels have the same amount of distance from thd top of the spring tower to the edge of the wheel.
If this was an AEV spacer kit this fix is an adjustable track bar and Tera Flex and or Rock Jock coil correction pads for the bottom of the springs . Trust me this will solve 99% of it.
