Are spacers really that bad?

I think Eric of relentless fab can cut some. If not I'm sure Wheelers and ToyTech carry them in a milled version. Not that it matters. You may or may not need extended studs. I elected to use washers and replacement nuts on my 2nd gen.

 

In a sense (that's why they add lift). It's still going to compress to the same length though unless you bottom out the coil. Which you won't.

 

Does anyone have any insight about camburgs ball joint UCA its new, it says that it cannot be used with spacer lifts. I want to say that they are just saying that because they do not make ine, maybe may be not? Either way what would be the difference from a UCA with a 3inch lift if it was a coil over or a spacer? I hope it works with spacers because it is a hell of a deal.

 

If you have the right size bump stops you won't bottom out the coil on a spacer lift either. You just won't have as much flex as the other. In both cases though that is assuming you are able to max out the travel of your coil, which isn't too common in rock crawling. Comes more into play at high speed desert stuff and jumping your truck, etc.

 

Did I sound like I was saying otherwise ?

 

Not really, it was merely an add on of what you were saying.

I was just wondering if I said something dumb

 

I ran a 3" procomp lift that wasn't a spacer. Yes the shocks are garbage but IMO its better than a spacer lift. I had the kit in the link but I paid $330 shipped for all the parts and it was pretty easy to install. I had no issues with it on fire roads such as lytle creek or cleghorn (even did some of the bypasses).
