you don't NEED them, but they can't hurt.

No, you DO need them. Keep driving without it and see what happens.

from my understanding they are more of a precautionary install to help increase the life of the half shafts......so couldnt hurt and could potentially save you money in the long run.

oh you mean like the probably thousands of AP1s that are lowered for years without the spacers that haven't encountered a problem. oh no, you couldn't be referring to those
