    Hey guys, I bought some Total Chaos UCA used and they came with these spacers that I've never seen. Can anyone identify what they are? I'm assuming I don't want to use these since I'm not using any sort of spacer lift or a lift higher than 3".

    I think those spacers were a cheap way to do a spindle lift. I haven't seen those spacers in a while i believe there discontinued

    I think those were used on trail master lifts... I think ive seen them on a few TM trucks that go around here


    but TM lifts are horseshit, so you should just take those off. haha

    That's what I was thinking, Trailmaster or old Fabtech. Thanks for the help! Just wanted to make sure I wasn't throwing away some uber rare parts.

    Those went on the old Fabtech drop bracket 6" lift. They would just piggy back it to the stock spindle vs including a taller spindle. In other words cutting cost on that terrible "lift kit"!

    So likely this was on a mall crawler, great. :)

    That brings up a good point paranoid, I have emailed about replacement parts for these but does anyone sell replacement stuff that you know of?
