Entirely possible that the spacers are being confused here. The preload spacers exist at the top of the fork assembly, its entirely normal to replace the stock set with custom made replacements to a particular length. This lets you achieve a good middle setting for preload with the external preload adjuster in the middle of its adjustment range.

The 'other' spacers here are the ones I am questioning. The OP made an additional set that fits between the damper rods and the new emulators, it is these that I am suggesting are not necessary, and indeed that I do not think YC uses either when he fits them.
