    You can see the pictures, had the nuts as far down as they would tighten on the stock studs and still half the threads were not being used.

    Maybe the spider trax have different nuts or our trucks have different studs

    I was referring to the 1.25" spider Trax spacers you are selling to John. Not your 1.50" BORA spacers. He should not have to change studs on his truck to put the 1 25" spacers on.

    Oh my bad, I misunderstood. But all spacers should be the same when it comes to how they bolt to the wheel studs shouldn't they??

    No. Each brand cuts them differently in terms of depth. My studs came all the way through the nut. Also the Spider trax have a tapered hole and use a tapered nut. Maybe that's the difference.

    Interesting. Cause the stock studs weren't even close to the end of the nut. On the 1.25" and 1.5" boras

    Pop your wheel off and do a test fit, see if the nuts go all the way on

    Nice! All depends on the end setup you are trying to accomplish. Wheels, tires and suspension

    @RockyMtnTRD Can you elaborate on your grease-able shackle bolts? That is a genius idea!
    Where did you get em from? You have a part number?

    The only reason I even have spacers is because of my shock tower relocate. But now that I have it all put together it looks like I don't need ones that big (1.25)

    Not 100% sure they're the only one, but they do make all sizes
    No part number off hand but I might be able to find it after some searching. The idea behind it is just that the bolt will grease itself and thus grease the shackles too, it's also to reduce the squeaky noises from the springs
    Yeah, depends on what tires you end up running.
    I had 1.25" with my 285s and the dirty fives and both rubbed on the shocks slightly. So I decided to upgrade based on some research and with the 1.5" it looked like I should be good based off a MC test. :anonymous:

    If you could that would be fantastic, I want to install greaseable bolts in my leafs. Just did a shackle flip and these bolts would be perfect!

    I will have to flex it out and check, but with the backspacing of my wheels I think I might be good
