With what you provided, you could've been talking about a doll house instead of Jeep parts. Who said anything about guessing? Many people run that spacer with great results.

The spacer is easily explained. The bolt pack as you found, is the hardware for it, separately. We didn't have much to go on and you provided none and expect us to be mind readers.

I provided the manufacture's name, the manufacturer's part description, and the part prices. If you purchased any of these parts, you would know what they are based on that description. If you need more than that to know what I'm talking about then I'm amazed you can manage to type a sentence.

More information doesn't always yield better answers.

It's better than guessing. Could be going in the wrong direction. That's where information comes in handy. A description is a start. This is more about the second thing, which you discovered was a bolt kit.

At least I can put a sentence together much better than you providing any info.

The steering box spacer comes with hardware. Get rid of that die cast job that always breaks. Something on my want list.

No, but this one is hostile enough to keep me from supporting it.

Where is the hostility? This place is laid back.

Sounds like you need to get off your high horse.

You answered your own question in the original post when you said the $8 part was listed under "replacement bolt pack."

I love OPs like this. Wanting to get spoon fed. If you needed a spacer that badly a phone call would've sufficed. If cash flow is the problem I'm sure you have friends that could help make one, it's a very simple thing to fabricate.

It is not hostile here. I gave you the best possible answer to your question. You asked for specifics on two of JCRs parts, some steering spacers that are not exactly a commonly used part. Who better than JCR to educate you about JCRs parts than JCRs employees?

They had a phone number on the front page of their website exactly for this purpose. The most ASAP to get your whateveritwas to you ASAP was for you to call JCR's customer service number ASAP.

As soon as poss'ble
seven syllables long phrase
it's not that serious

Let that haiku put a smile on your face.

I might agree with the overall premise of your statement... telling us the color of your Jeep is providing more information, but would do nothing for us in helping you...

However, I know for me, I pop on here, from time time, throughout the day when I have a few extra minutes at work, and help where I can, and just read and learn the rest of the time. I have bought and/or researched plenty of parts, but not everything is top of mind from just a brief description. Providing a link, to help jar the memory, might have yielded you a better response.

I, for one, have been helped by the members here, on countless occasions, have done by best to help on a few occasions, and would suggest that the "high horse" you referred to, might be the very one that you are sitting on, judging the members who are giving of their own time to offer help to you.
