      Im looking at this myself but getting hold of some 25mm thick ally is the hard part, especially at the price i want to pay, i can get 12mm no problem so i may make it in that and double up.

        A ball joint spacer wont help the tread with regards to how it wears.

        You can fit them by all means!! Its a good idea!

        But you'll want tracking on the truck afterwards as the tyres will be in a albeit exagerated V shape.

            My truck was better in camber after BJ spacers than it was before. I guess its cos everything goes south with age

            I had my geometry done after fitting them and camber needed hardly any adjustment - which doesn't make a lot of sense unless the Surf's wishbones are of unequal length. (after adding spacers, the top one is effectively longer)

              How was the camber before?!

              Mine looked like a kid when they cross there legs before they pi$$ themselves!

              An the wishbones are unequal i think, But the lower wishbone has eratic mountings. Like the wheels in duplo so it goes up an down

                Wheels in Duplo? Now you've lost me? Erratic mounting? Sounds like drunken sex... I'm going to bed...

                    They have a good stock but they ain't cheap, there is a non ferrous steel stockiest near me but I'm waiting for a free bee to come along.
