One inch Spring spacer question

[knever3]

This lift that I put on the Jeep 15 years ago worked perfect until recently. It rubs nearly every time especially in reverse so I think the front springs sagged over time. I never did extend the bump stops up front so I'm looking for extended bump stops and possibly a one inch polyurethane spacer. The problem I see is the Spring perch looks rusted and destroyed. I would like options on what to do. If I buy the acos spacers I believe they are 1.5 inch minimum and that maybe too much. I also I believe have a sway bar problem when I Drive out of the driveway it clunks with the tiniest little bumps. I replaced the body bushings again 15 years ago. I don't think my sway bar links are long enough either.

Is the body itself cracked or rusted through?

It just looks like your bushings and the metal plate the sit on are in bad shape.

 

If you front springs have finally started to sag then yea you might want to get some spacers, but I would suggest against the poly ones, or at least the hard poly bushings. I put hard poly bushings on my CJ8 years ago and over time, while the did not go bad, anywhere they met the body of my Jeep, the metal cracked since poly does not give like rubber does.

 

If you can get a 1" spacer and an OEM bushing that might do ya proper, now and over the next 15 years.

If anyone can share a link or brand for these parts I would appreciate.  It sounds like rubber is the way.  I would buy springs, but I wouldn't know which to buy, I want a soft ride.  These were advertized as 3" lift, but I doubt that as soon as I put them in.
