I agree with the part that you need a lot of droop when running small tires... But how can not using the upper spacer cause the top arm to bind? I know your argument makes sense but I think the upper arm should be able to move freely regardless of the upper spacer. Any arm should not be binding in any way.
The top arm will not drop as far as you want it to,it stops at the bulk head.
If you take out the rear spacers,remove your shocksand then check your droop you should find as I did that you can not obtain a lower droop #than 3.5to4 on the gauges.I`m not saying you will ever need this low of a #,but it is nice to know that if you want it ,you`ve got it.
