Front 5100 rear spacers only?

[mwray8909]

So I've done a search here and via google for any threads on this or any members doing this. I have the front adjustable 5100's and the rear 1.5 daystar spacer. Has anyone ran this set up? It will not be permant. Due to my schedule I want to install what I have and get my alignment done this weekend. I will be doing the rears to match in the near future. I know this isn't optimal. I guess my question is will the rear OEM shocks handle the 1.5 spacers for about a month or so. Thank you guys in advance.

you will be fine.... but why not spring the extra $100 and get the rear shocks? You will have to take it apart twice if not. Same reason I am kicking myself in the ass for not getting SAW coils from the get go. Gotta take it apart and take the crappy daystar spacer out.

The OEM shocks really aren't long enough, but as long as you don't beat on them off road you'll be fine for a month.

I have a friend who is leaving his current job next week at a shop. He can do my alignment for free. I'm going to get the rears but I won't have them in time to get the alignment done.

I'm absolutely going to spend the money on spring and shock just the rush for alignment.

I know that I don't want my shocks to limit my travel for to long because it'll cause them to fail prematurely. But even so it would take a lot to force them to fail.

That has no bearing on the front. Install the front, get it aligned and then install the rears when you get them. If you didn't order the 5100s as a set of 4 you probably paid a little more

I found a set of damaged box fronts for 70 each.
