    GTR shocks are threaded, and so have adjustment collars, not spacers. Where are yours set?
    If I might remark, your shock oil and springs seem mismatched: most people run heavier oil and lighter springs.
    I know they're having their break there by your brake drums. No, you're not invited.

    Might also be the Issue I just resolved where the back end of my chassis was broken and only held together with the shocks and undercarrage gaurd. My back end wouldn't pick up at all even under it's own weight.

    Take off the shocks and make sure your suspension is not binding up and moves freely. If you make your Pillowball retainer screws too tight it will bind up the suspension. Or you could possibly have a bent a-arm hinge pin.
