    Just got my spacers in from Bora!! And the studs are so long!! Hoping the lugs I went with will work or I'll have to run down to autozone. The lift shackle came in also and damn!! It's huge!

    Can anyone confirm if these will work with my steelies ???

    I noticed the hub on the wheel spacer is slightly smaller than the steel wheel opening

    Maybe they are lug centric and not hub centric wheels. Idk for sure I'm just throwing out ideas

    The wheels are lug centric

    I had a hard time as well. I had to play with how high i jacked up the truck in order to have my control arms at just the right angle to fit the spanner wrench in there.

    You need to take the coil over off and adjust it till you get it to where you want. And the recommended exposed threads is to not go over 2.375" of threads. Per instruction manual. At least that's what mine says.

    Did you take your tires off ? And so you just jacked the lower arm up to get past it?? I'm thinking 1.25 of thread will give me around 2.5 of lift? They're 550lb Springs and 14" I think

    I put them in a spring compressor mounted to the wall. Squeezed the coil spring and turned the collar until the amount of threads were showing that I needed.

    .75 spacers fit good!! The steelies have a little pocket so the miniscule thread exposed is good
