'85.  Both sides.  Koni shocks.  Happy.

IF you're talking about the ball joint spacers which add height to
compensate for the longer springs, you must do both sides or you'll drive
the alignment shop nuts.  GoWesty sent me be spacers at no charge since I
had recently purchased their springs.

I've had my GoWesty springs in for over a year and have seen no resettling
of the driver's side.  I did have Syncro.org springs for a bit, but one of
them collapsed - not good.

|Hi I just received my 2wd 1.5 lift springs made by gowesty from
|vancafe. I ordered a spacer to put on my driver side to compensate for
