Not sure if I have theses installed correctly. Anyone know if the silver spacer mounts on the outside as I have done, or on the inside?

That's how I did it, with a small O-ring in-between, I used some limiting straps so it really worked good for that, the stock shocks had no spacer inside so makes sense!!

I stole the plastic caps off the stock shocks and used the spacers for outboarding the bottom of the rear shocks.

Hmmm good idea. I've been thinking of out boarding my shocks. Do you do just the rear? Is there a noticeable difference in the torque twist?

Definitely recommend outboarding the rears. I haven't done the fronts.
