Default Axle spacer Q's..(Installed S2 springs)

Just got done installing my S2 springs on my AP2 the other day. Car/drop looks great rides decent but the vibration from the axles is pretty bad. I have searched and searched but really come up with nothing on the spacers. As far as brands, I have read that all are the same, hardware that is included can be alittle cheaper but not worried about that. I am wondering if/when I install these, does this fix the problem completly? Dont want to feel any vibration as the car rode perfect before lowering. Seems to be a headache.....

Thanks

There are many variables that determine the soultion. Some say that sometimes the spacers don't help because the CV buckets have XX amount of miles, so they are worn beyond the point of spacing as a solution.

IMO,your best soultion is to swap tHe buckets. Then vibration may never be an use again.

BTW have you gotten an alignment? I ask because the vibration can be caused by something else?

No alignment yet, wanted to see what the problem was/ install the spacers if needed before I got the alignment. Its on noticable when giving the car gas, when letting off, it goes away.

BTW, is there a link on swapping the buckets? I have no clue as this is my first RWD/S2K. Thanks
