I just installed this kit with the strut brace spacers and they worked great. Strut brace cleared my V6 using these and NO modification to the brace was required. Thanks again Jeff for a great product.

NO, NO Thank you and all my past customers.

How's about a pic of the strut brace spacers. Also, how much for just the said spacers?

glad to hear this has worked out, wish it had been sooner as i ended up going through bits4vits, great guy to deal with for other items for you guys that want some other odds and ends to add to your spacer lift later.

Are you guys having to get your front end aligned after you do this? 

Eric

an alignment is required, you will have to slot your strut holes or buy some camber correcting bolts to align.

Where is the best place to buy the camber correcting bolts?

I think I still have a set laying around here that I never used, still new.  I'll let them go for $20.  If I were you though, I'd recommend going with Bzzr2's suggestion and just slot the top strut mount bolt holes.  You can do this with a round file or a dremmel.  It doesn't take very much metal removal to gain the angle you need (1/8 to 1/4 inch) depending on the lift height.  I think any alignment shop would do this for you during the alignment process if you don't care to mess with it.  They'll get it right the first time because they are alignning the truck.  Mine didn't charge me a dime to do it.

The reason I recommend this course of action is after looking at the camber bolts I decided the reduced metal on the bolts (where the bolt cams) made the bolt weaker than the stock strut mount bolts.  I've slotted both my truck's struts (versus using the camber bolts) and reused the stock full sized (and strength) bolts.  Once the alignment is set, I want to make sure they stay set.

One more thought, after you install a lift (new springs or coil spacers or both) if you immediately take it to an alignment shop, you need to visit the alignment shop again within a couple hundred miles because the new suspension "settles" a bit when driving it and then you are slightly out of alignment.  I knew this but neglected to go back until a few thousand miles later and in the mean time ate up a considerable portion of the inside of my front tire's tread. The slight changes in camber aren't visible to the naked eye.  Don't know about you, but I can't afford to buy new tires too often.

ya, seems most people go the slotting route, cheaper and effective while remaining completely safe.  on my original lift i only had a one inch coil spacer up front and the performance shop that does a lot of custom work slotted the bottom hole only, as opposed to what is posted all over here.  this time we tried the bottom and it just didn't do it so we did the top also.

btw for anybody looking to try a different rear shock i have been running 91 cavalier rear shocks for 2 weeks now, took them in the bush this weekend and like them.  ride is smoother than the mustang shocks but a little bouncier with my xl7 rear coils.  had to get different bolts to mount them up.  i'm getting nearly 2 inches further down travel now as i mounted them as low to the upper mount as possible.  added bump stop spacers to prevent rubbing inside the fenders but tires still like to touch the inner fender well..  anyway, these shocks would work well with jeff's spacers...  now just gotta get my panhard relocated, need a new bar is mine is not willing to come off without heat and the bushing.....  fukking tracker.

Jeff,

I just had to bump this old thread to the front, and give you props on a great kit.  Jeff's customer service is top notch, his shipping is quick, and his product is solid.  Count me as another satisfied customer with a tracker lifted using Jeff's kit.

Ditto-  Same here!

  Thanks guys!!!!!

I would not still be making them if it were not for customers like you guys. I also would have probably lost my house by now. LOL. My normal work has been so slow that I am pretty much just doing what I can find. I can honestly say though I am happier now than I have ever been. I also seem to have more $$  . I am glad I started making these spacers, it has proven to be one of my best decisions yet.

This economy doen't look like it will get any better soon. We can all learn a few things our grandparents had to the hard way,  there is alot more to life than just material things!!!

You betcha!!  I hope more people discover this fine point of life too cause life is better quality without the excessive debt and the stress it causes you.  Biggest killer in the world I think: excessive mental stress and all the ailments it causes.  

Oh yeah, I gotta give my props to Jeff as well (again).  24 months and  about 30K and I'm still riding on his spacers with no problems.  Thank you for making a solid product.  If you ever get a wild hair up your butt to fab another add on for the 2nd generation trucks, give me a yell.

Thanks guys!!!!!
