      #1179859 - 10/05/09 10:18 PM

I thought about Sequoia spacers but then I saw the price of them.... You can dang near get longer springs for the price of those things.


That HAS to be Rays.

That's what I thought. It's def Ray's rig.

I should have searched. They came up.

Too bad they are so darn pricey.

Cheapest I've found them after searching through the past threads here.

$69 bucks.

What springs would you use in place of the spacers?

Justice DID make some in the past, but not enough people committed to buying them, so wouldn't produce them en masse. Getting people to SAY they want something and getting them to BUY it are two completely different things.

I think the Sequoia spacers are probably the best thing going...

I have the Sequoia spacers on my 1992 and my 1990 Montero.
Takes a little trimming to fit. Got off Ebay for lake $50

Yes, I have a mold back home in the garage for 2" coil spacers that was machined out of a solid block of teflon. The cost of materials and the time to pour them does not make it worth the effort. I wouldnt be able to produce them for the same cost of the Sequoia spacers. 69 bucks is a great deal if they fit properly.

Ty, we'll have to take a look at how you got them to fit in Mojave. I have the sequoia spacers too but have been too busy to install them.
