    I have a 99 tacoma 6 lug prerunner. And i currently have 1.5 wheel spacers up front becuase of my wheels"eagle alloys " rub on the caliper. But i am going long travel suspension and will remove the wheel spacers, but i need something to clear the caliper, either grind the caliper if its not much, or proably best bet, 1/4" spacer, with slightly longer studs, but i dont know how much longer or what part numbers. I see the rears"1.75" are slightly longer than the fronts "1.5", is this long enough? It doesnt seem to be , and i cant find anything longer.
