Cory,

How much did they come to? I would have probably ordered some this go around but I missed the post.
Arghh!

 

[Trunk Monkey]

They're $80. I have two sets avail., both 1.5", that weren't spoken for in the initial order, just let me know.

 

[Hondo]

I'd like a set of the 1.5" if they are still available, pm me with all necessary payment info, etc.
Thanks!

 

[jerseyfzj80]

I will take a set of what ever is left for the front please PM me if there are any left!

Still waiting on a couple of the people that "pre-ordered", I'll give them another week to respond and then let you know.

"My" set can be sold, couldn't find it in me to spend the money on these after $400 worth of trail damage to be fixed. Sorry Fillmore...but, get good use out of them whomever gets them!

Just got mine a day or so ago.

These are real nice. Nicely machined, nicely welded, and nicely painted.

Thanks very much Cory!!

Best.

ps: did you get an estimate to have these machined as a single piece of metal? It seems that these might have been cheaper doing it that way....just a thought.

Thanks again!!

MLX450 and dd113, check your PMs.

Cory,

I will take a set of the 1.5 spacers if you have any left. If not, put me on the list for the next batch. You can PM me with payment info.

Thanks

 

[Trunk Monkey]

I'll let you know if I do.

Interesting learning from this, the spring mounts and bumpstops are different on 91/92 than later years. So, if you have an FJ80, you may need to make a change to the mounting bolts.

Cory,
What is the latest and greatest on your spacers? I am ready to sent you a check if you got a set. Thanks. Doug

Do you ever make front spacers for the 100 series?

I'm curious to know if you happen to make custom applcations. I'm looking for a 2.0" spacer up frnt. Let me know. And I'm also curious to know what the dif. is between the 91-92 compared to the later series.
Thanks,
Ryan

He did do a set of 2". They run GREAT!

the diff is that the rear most mounting point for the spacer/bumpstop unit on the frame spring capture bracket is a hole on the 93 and later years, whereas the frame spring capture bracket on a 92 is a stud at this position.

If you have a cut-off wheel, angle ginder, etc. and some patience-it doesn't much matter. Just cut off the tack welded bolt on the spacer and re-use the stocker nut on the stud.

Wow, didn't know this thread was still going. Unfortunately, I won't be doing another run of spacers. A few of the people that spoke up initially bailed out when it came time to pay. I was able to get other buyers for them, but don't want to get stuck with the cost of making them.

You should be able to get someone like Profitt's Cruisers make a set for you as a one off.
