Another homebrew spacer thread (1 Viewer)

[slow91fj90]

Well Im gonna need a little more room up front for my new meats. I love the Metal Techs but could use the money for other things. Saw what a couple people did and I decided to do the same. Here is a teaser of the new meats and my spacer build. All I had was my cell for pics.

 

[slow91fj90]

A couple more pics. Tires are 37x14x15 Iroks. Oh and my spacers are a hair shy of 2".

 

[julstirn]

Go ahead and make me a set now! Cant wait to see the new tires on.

That's going to be a beast

 

[justbecause]

do you have pics of your rear bumper or sliders?
what are you doing for caster correction? (with the OME and spacers you are @ 5"s of lift correct?)
37" tires, what gears?

Love them enough to copy them?

I guess, kind of like when people build their own sliders and they look like Metal Tech or Slee or anyone's.

Not that the Metal Tech ones aren't great, and don't serve a great purpose, it's not like it's a patentenable solution either.

Metal Tech's look a bunch nicer than mine though!

For caster I have the Yellow bushings and the Manafre radius arm drop brackets, also have the Taco CV shaft mod so I should be pretty good on that. I have 5:29 gears.

Yeah I wish mine were as pretty as the Metal Techs. I would have bought theirs but funds weren't available right now.

 

[yoopercharged]

You can hardly see them anyways, so I wouldn't be too concerned with the aesthetics.

 

[slow91fj90]

Here is the final project installed. My truck finally sits level now. Ok so I have a set of the 1" Manafre spacers that are free to anyone that needs them, send me a PM if your interested, first come first serve. Ill even cover the shipping in the US.

 

[gnarlytoes]

I will be happy to take the spacers off your hands. Sending PM.

 

[slow91fj90]

Sorry guys, spacers are going to Gnarlytoes.

 

[cody c]

how'about some pics with the new rubber on?

Thanks!
I'll use them 'til I can afford a lift, then pass them on to someone else.

Any issues with the front of the inside of the spring having adequate clearance to the "now lowered" bump stop inside the spring?
