Off set spacer or solid lift spacer

Direct from NCDs ebay add for a 2.5 spacer for my truck
Caution: Beware of other kits that offer an "OFFSET DESIGN". This is known within the off-road community to cause coil bind and unsafe handling characteristics.

Ive been around these truck for 2 years now and mess with every lift out there and this is the first Ive heard of this, whats the word is this true or a sales pitch. Ill be picking up a 2.5 spacer this week

Sounds like a sales pitch.
There's hundreds of members running AutoSpring leveling kits here and this is the first I've heard of this.
I'm having no trouble with my 1.5" AS.

The Autospring is offset so that when you hit bumps that the upper ball joint wont hit the spring tower. I have the offset Autospring 2.5" kit and haven't had any issues out of it. It's a great kit and I would take that over any other little plastic POS kit any day. They are just trying to fool you into buying their kit
