    I just installed some spacers on the SQ5. Start it up and shifted in drive and it feels like the brakes are locked in. Does anyone know what I need to do or what I did wrong?

    Are you sure you have the proper length bolts? It sounds like they’re maybe too long and are hitting something.

    Bought SupremePower 20f/15r spacers and bolts for the stocks. Nothing is hitting

    20f/15r?
    Double-check all the bolts and make sure no one accidentally use one from the 20 in a 15.
    Hell, I'd recheck them all just to make sure there wasn't a mistake at the parts bin.

    If it worked before and stopped working after then there's not a lot of variables to check.

    As @SQive mentioned already, take off all the bolts and measure them.

    Sorry I meant 15f/20r. I took of the front spacers and I was able to drive the vehicle so I believe I’ve received the wrong size bolts. I’m gonna take the rear bolts off today as well just to see if the bolts in the packages were switched

    Sounds like bolts are too long
