I will get the car jacked up and look at that more closely this week. I have noticed the spacers are aluminum on my car and different thickness on each side. I suppose to compensate for differences in weight and body alignment of each rear corner?

Today I added 7/8 inch thick flat aluminum spacer above the shock mount plate. Cut it, drilled it and bolted it in. It raised the rear 1 3/8 inch just like I wanted. Thanks Dwight for the insight. Car sits with just a slight tilt to the rear. Will be so much better with full tank, stuff in the "boot " and two people. This forum is awesome.
