I had to fab a "custom" 2 inch spacer for mine because of the extra space with my lift kit.

Is that with the body lift? Even with only 2 inch spacers there was no way the airbags were going to work without a new bracket on mine. The distance between the top of the axle and the frame increased by 2 inches with my lift....

Yep i have a BDS 6" suspension(4"rear springs,no blocks) and i had no spacer to put in there and they work awsome. I carry about 1-1500lbs of tools all the time and a 5-12k trailer every few days. No issues so far and i have had them in for about 70,xxxkm now.
