I had spacers with the standard torsion bars and got the truck level, They were well wound up...but it was level

i've got the RT 2'' extended bars, i was concerned that the smaller (38mm) spacers and these would mean the front end was up high?
or am i wrong ?

Mark, i now have 3 ever so slightly different drawings for coil spacers, and a question.
with the 2'' RT torsion bars, does the spacer have to be 50mm in length,overall, or to the shoulder, the deamon 4x4 drawing Ian sent me is only 38mm to the shoulder.
just thought i'd ask before i machine them, don't want my front higher than my rear!

Scotty, if your knocking up coil spacers I wouldn't mind a 1" set to lift my sagging 2" springs😊

Mike

bit of a saggy rear, Michael???
it comes to us all with age.................

Lmfao,Barry your a tight fisted git.But thanks for the pens. cheers Scott, you can have one of the pens if you want.

[scott-lee]

ouch!!
minimum 1 metre order for 7'' Ali,£200. could get 6 pairs out of it. Asked barry about your t-shirt..............he gave me these to give to you.

he said you could send him a letter and tell him all about it!

spent £450, and i got sod all

[surfenstein]

Ok,great. i'll do a major Roughtrax shop,tomorrow (will tell barry your t-shirt is broken!)
going to get a price for a metre of 170+ Ali bar,tomorrow ,from our suppliers. looking at 5 sets of 2'' coil spacers (or would you prefer 3'' ?) which i think would be popular,and easy to do ,even on the 'semi' CNC lathe. should be able to do it in one opp,with a good finish,and lots of chamfers and rads to make it look pretty.

Cool. I think 2" would be prefferable. Its an easier more common lift to do. Dont get me wrong +3" is ok but you have to do a bit more shopping around for shocks and then start adjusting panhard and suspension geometry.

cheers,my lord!
thanks,mark think its going to be a couple of weeks before i can get to you.truck off the road at the moment ,things to do.wheels,tyres,lights etc. was hoping saturday 28th might be good for you and stringer?
thinking about getting the RT 2''over torsion bars,with the 20% increase uprated springs and coil spacers,so you can save the delrin spacers for a customer?
what do you think?

Sounds like a plan to me.

[scott-lee]

Might be nothing but my gen2 did the whole not letting go of the key thing and it turned out the inhibitor switch had come off the little bracket, might be worth a looksie Scott😊
