i have had these on my van for a over a year now with no ill effects only good things to report, i was having a look around the van this morning and i notised that the 2 bolts (allan headed) have made contact with the edge of the seat boxes, where the seat box is horizontal and folds to a vertical, on the under side of the van, nothing to bad but there is an inprint on the metal work. could only realy happen when the springs are fully compressed, will take some pics later on has any one else notised this on there vans?

In effect you have moved the upper arm up by the width of the spacer.
Your bump stop is not set up for this.
Ideally you should do some maths and work out how the thickness of the spacer will affect movement at the damper and increase the length of the bump stop by said amount.
I would have said that 20mm at the wheel will probably somewhere around 15mm at the damper.
But then that brings you onto the bump stop quicker.
