I ordered them from Rough Country, Just got them in Today and they only measure 1 1/2". But on the web site they only list them in 1" increments Ie: 1" 2" 3".....Is this normal???? What am I missing here...still kinda new to the whole "jeep" thing.


thanx guys

 

Your lift spacers hate you! j/k. It really just depends on the manufacturer because I know some lifts that are 3" are sometimes more/sometimes less than advertised.

 

I could never understand that, myself.

Perhaps someone on thier end can't read a tape measure.

 

Yeah from what i've seen its "normal" for them to be undersize. Not sure why tho. I have a set that measure about 1 3/4". Their Daystars i believe

 

IMO it would make more sense if they made them a little oversized, because when they start to get broken in and compress a bit it would actually be 2 inches, of course that only applies to the poly spacers.

 

i have some teraflex 2" spacers now. and they measure out 1 7/8" they are used but Poly is so hard they dont really "Squish"

I plan to use a dual coil spring isolater to get an extra 1/2"

 

well, you can use the stock isolators to get to your desired height,, also you can sell those and buy Howlers, solid ones.. they dont droop LOL

 

Just dont buy 2" poly spacers from Motomomentum 4x4 on e-bay. THIS IS A PUBLIC WARNING. I installed a set and the broke in half before I even reached factory torque specs. Thats a crappy product.

 

Dang I just ordered a set a couple of days ago waiting on them to come in the mail now. What should I do now?

 

You actually are supposed to use the stock isolator. That's why they are a bit shorter than 2" or whichever size you order.

 

that doesn't make any sense cause the isolator is already there so if you add 1.5 inches to the isolator you still only net 1.5 inches in lift.

I believe you may have received the 1 inch spacer by accident and or they now make spacers like they cut wood (2x4 is actually 1.5x3.5)

I'd call the CS department and complain.
