If you still have the little metal clamp on the bottom of the spring, and you bolt the top to the jeep, and the weight of the axle is hanging on the spring, something is going to break.
The reason no one attaches the top is we don't care if the spring moves away from the top mount. As long as it stays on the tower. If you don't want them to drop, add a limit strap. Or really short shocks. :rof:
